2020 Craft Projects Master List

Something a little different for today. As I’m putting together my new craft/library room (tour once it’s done!), I’ve been trying to mentally organize all the projects that I have started and not finished or not even started at all. So I made a master list for myself! I will be checking in with this list every two months or so. And I’m sure I will be adding to do periodically. My goal is to get 75% of these projects finished by year’s end.

May Crafting Goals

What I said for April : I truly had the goal of getting my craft room all set up by the end of March and then COVID-19 happened. Everything seems to have sped up and slowed down at the same time. My craft room is still completely empty and I haven’t painted or ordered the shelving units yet. So my goal this month is to do those two things. Hopefully I can do some small craft projects in the meantime.

My craft room has been painted and ready to move into. Unfortunately Ikea is now having stock issues and I couldn’t get my shelving unit ordered yet. I definitely have enough supplies to organize them a bit and get back to crafting. I have some big goals this coming month, including getting back to documenting some of my crafting here on the blog.

May’s Goals:

• Make a list of craft projects (to complete and to start) - I loved starting with a large list of projects so I know exactly what I want to dive into.

• Send out May birthday cards - I’m been sending these every month, just want to keep it up.

• Send out May pick-me-up cards - In this weird time, I want to send some cards out.

• Finish April Memory Planner Pages - Many of the pics have been printed, just need to journal and decorate.

• Organize Craft Supplies - I’m thinking I’m just going to make piles of like supplies to see what I have and hope that I can order my shelves later this month.

• Finish Arthur’s 2018 PL Album - #1 project I want to finish soon…

April Crafting Goals

What I said for March: We’re moving this month. Only about 1 mile away, but still it’s moving an entire house. While the craft room and library will be one of the first random rooms to be completed, right now it’s in tatters. I’m going to put all craft projects on hold until at least April. Hoping that things settle fairly quickly so I can get back to it.
