So, how many of you have made New Year resolutions?
I decided that I'm going to steer clear of the normal everyday resolutions and make some crafty ones instead in the vain hope that I may actually be able to keep them LOL!
In 2010 I want to:
- Complete more than the 87 scrapbook layouts I managed this year
- Complete more than the 94 cards I made this year
- Spend less time on the internet and more time crafting
- Spend less money on my supplies and use what I already own first
- Use the textile inspiration kits I bought recently by making some Christmas decorations and textile ATCs
- Teach myself to crochet
- Make at least 3 Christmas cards a month so I don't have a last-minute rush next year!
- Use my scrap paper instead of hoarding it
- Use my sorely neglected Bind-it-all to make mini-books
- Finish cataloguing my rubber/clear stamp collection
- Use some of my vast button collection to make jewellery or fond other projects to use them for
- Go through the rest of my craft magazines, cut out articles I want to keep and stick them in my inspiration folder
- Make a start on using the items I bought to alter
- and finally, visit a Craft Show as I've never managed to get to one yet!!!!
So how about you? Have you made any crafty resolutions and so you think you'll keep them?
Wishing you a very Happy New Year

That's a fairly tall order there Jo, good luck with it, but your production of LOs and cards in 09 was way beyond anything I achieved, and something to be proud of.
You've inspired me to make a list of my own, not as long as yours mind!

Sounds like an idea for a layout doesn't it? You have inspired me to make a list of crafty resolutions for 2010 as, like you, I am more likely to keep those than the 'lose weight' kind!
It's a smaller list than yours but top of the list is to visit a Craft Show, preferably one of the big ones held in London.

I too want to learn to crochet and there is a new "learn to crochet" partwork mag and dvd out that I spotted advertised on tv today that might help,
