That said, here's the top six home/DIY projects on my list:
- Build and implement these useful-looking "laundry basket dressers" in our laundry area, and perhaps the bedrooms. We need a better system than we have now, and as most of the clean clothes seem to stay in baskets vs. the actual dressers...this option seems more functional and efficient for our busy family.
- Use up my old supply of scrapbooking materials to create some cool gifts for others. Maybe it will be simple, awesome items like this reusable to-do list frame; maybe I'll actually try to scrapbook again; or I'll donate some killer gift baskets to silent auctions, scout troops and school teachers.
- Photo a day. For 366 days. (yes, 2012 is a leap year!) Seriously. Upload to web album at least once per week.
- Create a chalkboard wall calendar a la Martha Stewart. It might not be for a full month, but a one week or two week option would be a really great addition for our home. Or build a "mother board unit" that can serve as the command center. My goal here is really to find something that can serve as a visual reminder of the stuff the whole family should be preparing for. This one is totally rad, and includes a menu board, magnetic chore charts and more!
- More wall art. This would be to help support goal #3 and maybe even goal #2. I'm really fond of this mosaic with a template, so that's a likely model I'll try. I may even develop a mini version to personalize my office a bit more. Another cool idea: photo covered monogram.
- Cook at least one meal in the slow cooker each week. Yum. The key here is that by having this goal, I am more likely to be menu planning and grocery shopping. This is good for our budget, our bodies, and our time together as a family!
