Rachel of Cornflower Blue Studio is a very talented woman who makes many crafts, many of which are crocheted and embroidered. I have never actually learned to crochet, but one of her DIY projects that is not crocheted is fairly simple and easy for me to do, so I thought i'd share it; the Rotating Goal List.
"Here's an easy way to keep track of the every-rotating lists of goals we all have!
You'll need post-it notes, a pencil, markers, a ruler, and an 11 x 14 inch piece of bristol board or heavy card stock.
Start by sketching out a simple layout with your pencil. I left a
half-inch border around the entire design, then added a 4.5 x 10 inch
rectangle at the top of the page. Use the bottom section of the page to
add six three inch squares, evenly spaced. And one more square inside
the rectangle, too!
Now you can use your markers to fill in the design with lettering, doodles, borders, or whatever you like!
Next you need to decide on the time frame for your goals - are these
weekly goals, things you want to accomplish this month, this season?
It's up to you, and you can always change it because you can switch out
the post-it note whenever you like. I decided to make my goals for the
week this time.
Now fill in your goal squares with more post-its. You can put the most
pressing goals first, and order the rest in terms of importance. Remove
the goals as they are accomplished so you can keep track of your
progress : )
I used a little silver clip to hang my list where I can see it as I work."
I also made one of these! For the summer, I've started to save mine in a little tiny box, so by the end of the summer, I can look back and reflect on what goals i've achieved in a season. I think it's pretty important not to just focus on what you need to fix, but also what you've completed. It makes life just a bit more posative! Anyway, here's my version! :
I decided to make mine smaller and used half-sized sticky notes instead of regular ones. Also, I decided to draw a little picture on all of the sticky notes!
Feel free to drop a wonderful comment and send me a link to one of yours that you made!
Until next time!
