You know how it goes.
You plan on doing all of these things that you would like to try out, just for fun, or just because you really like the sound of it, or because you think you need too! :) I am sure we have a list of those things lying around somewhere right? Well this year, i decided to try and tackle at least one or two DIY tasks each month that i have on my list of things i would like to do. Mainly crafty/making type things. :) Most of these things i have ALWAYS wanted to try, but haven't yet! Time to do them... slowly... :)
Should be a lot of fun, too! I hope... :)

So below is what i have for ideas so far. :) I guess i will do them in no particular order... who knows what might change and pop up! So i will choose one or two projects each month, to complete and blog about it telling you how i did it, with pics and what not. Sound good?
So here is what i have come up with so far! If you have any ideas/suggestions of anything, let me know! Maybe you have done something fun, and want to share how to do it. That would also be fun! Leave me a comment with any suggestions you may have. :)
1. Research & go chemical free with cleaning products and things around the house.
2. Homemade Jams/Relish's - Canning. Haven't done this ever before!
3. Make bread from scratch - Sour Dough, and Wholemeal.

So there. As you can see, i have my work cut out for me! :) Now, those of you that know me well, know that i have good intentions. lol I am not saying that i will definitely 100% complete everyone of these tasks, but at least i have something to aim for now! And that's gotta count for something right? But in saying that, i am really going to try my hardest! :-)

Great list! When I make a list, there is a greater chance of doing those things. A list keeps the ideas fresh and in front of me. Looks like you will be having lots of fun working on your projects this year. I'm looking forward to seeing you post about them.

Great List Melissa!! Hope you achieve, and get done with it all so you can be able to stand back and say: "That was worth the work, and effort and maybe a little time ha ha ".
