I have been working on two main projects this December. As I write this, I realize that maybe taking on any sort of "project" in an already busy December isn't so wise. Hmm.
Project one is a major writing project and our dining room table has mostly looked something like this. I have a deadline of the 31st for a first draft of some chapters. It is slow going and my heart is not really in it.
Project two is a December Daily mini-album. I have done different versions of this over the years and wanted it to be super simple this year.
I took at least one photo a day this month. I cut up some scrapbooking paper to 6x8 size and covered some chipboard for the covers. I've glued photos in during the month and used number tags from Elle's Studio to label the day of the month.
For a few days when I had a lot of pictures from a special event and for Christmas Eve and day, I added a little pocket sheet protector to add some extra photos like for this day when we cut dowm our tree.
I'll use some of the journalling tags from the same site to add some narrative details (but not til after the 31st!) and bind it with the BIA. This December doesn't seem quite as action-packed as other Decembers have been which is due to project one!
Awesome idea to document December!! Love it.....and best wishes for your writing - that book on play looks interesting - I am back to teaching ECE starting next week and always looking for new inspiration.
