A Time to Create: In my creative space

In my creative space

today is the finished marble bags, some gifts for boys for Christmas. I was going to add to the gift a joke book too for each boy, appropriate for boys 7-9 years I think. The bags ended up measuring approximately 15cm square and I used the tutorial on The Purl Bee as a guide for making the bag.

To get more inspiration pop by here.

Have a fantastic Friday♥

Abundance

HEALTH

* Establish a morning and evening routine. Getting back into the habit of meditation outside of my room in a created space just for meditating. Setting a specific time for bed in the evening allowing for one hour screen free before bed and reading time.

* Eat more greens. Make smoothies and continue to eat nutritious foods that make me feel full of abundance.

* Exercise three times every week including yoga. Go to a new yoga class and interact with new like minded people.

PERSONAL

* Do something creative every day, crochet, cook, garden or photography.

* Set time aside weekly to pamper myself like a face mask etc. Also this can include going to get a massage.

* To just do more and do less procrastinating. Be organised and not worry about the time and effort required to get the job done.

EDUCATION

* Read books on health, happiness and personal development.

* Do one course on photography and one course on sustainability.

* Enrol in a first aid and CPR course.

HOME

* Develop a routine for keeping my garden neat and tidy. Allocate 30 minutes each day to water, weed or trim.

* Declutter each area of our home.

* Organise the pantry, removing the plastic and replacing it with glass.
