Goals for 2012

Hello and welcome to 2012....This year I thought I would set myself some GOALS...not "new year resolutions" as I never seem to keep them and are then very disappointed in myself! Two major ones are to do more crafting and keep my craft corner tidy....which I did both over the weekend and will post about that very soon...scary "before" photos and all! oh and the after photos :)

OK so here is a list of a few goals I would like to achieve this year.

1. Blog more often, I would love to say once a week but more achievable would be once a month, any more and we will put that down to a bonus.
2. Keep my craft corner tidy!
3. To craft more often...to craft when I "want to" not just when I "need to" (making a last minute card)
4. Enter more online challenges, I follow a few and always think wow I could do that. Now if I could meet this goal I could cross of goal number 3 and number 5. :)
5. Use up some of my items I have stashed away "for something special" I have so much stuff! as I discovered while cleaning up/tiding up my craft corner over the weekend.
6. NOT to buy any new items, now I now there is no way I could do this for a whole year! but I think i could achieve it for say a month.
7. Sell off/giveaway some of the items I really don't use, but just had to have! Have one box ready to go from the weekends clean up
8. Scrap more, I have SO many photos printed off and found them all over the place (now all in one...OK two! boxes)
9. NOT to print any photos off unless I am going to scrap them the very same day!
10. Finish a project before I start another one! Found a few while having the tidy up so now have a box waiting to finish off, some are just waiting for one more item to be added as I felt I just didn't have the right one, yep that great big stash of stuff and still didn't have what I needed!
11. To exercise more often, I feel great when I do! I joined a gym last year and just love going for some "me" time. I do it not so much for the weight loss (is great if I do) but more for the keeping fit and healthy. I don't normally go during the Christmas holidays so it has been a long 6 weeks and I can't wait to get back next Monday.
12. To sort out my pictures on my computer. Lable the folders, move items around and get all the old photos from my old laptop.
13. To do some crazy stuff with the kids.
14. Take some inspiration from some of my many scrapbooking and card making magazines I have.

I will be editing this post to keep you all up to date with how I am going and add a few more to it.

So coming up next will be a post on the before and after of the craft corner, so already I will be ticking off number 1 and 2 and as I now have a box of items ready to post to my face book page ready for sale number 7 is a partial tick off too :)

Happy crafting and thanks for stopping by
