December Projects

Well, ladies, I have been so overwhelmed with everything lately, that I have decided to put some monthly kits together for myself. I have so much (s)crap in my room, that I can' seem to get anything done. I enter my room and wander around a little bit, maybe sit at the table, clean up some things, think about what I all want to get done, and then, I end up going back upstairs because I feel this overwhelming sense of dread at pulling some things out.

So I have decided that I would pull out some coordinating patterned papers, some matching embellishments and force myself to be creative with that pile. If I feel like it, I will incorporate some other things from my stash into the projects, but I have decided to suck it up and try this out.

I will share the list of all of the products that I have put in my self-made kit, and if you have any questions, comments or ideas, please share. All of the items in this kit cost less than $32.
