Hooray!! It's Week 1 of Kim's Dare to DIY party! This week, it's all about being thankful. I've always liked the various methods of showing what you're thankful for each day, whether it be via a Facebook status or a jar of collected paper.
So I went with a frame. I sit at our office desk for many hours out of the day doing homework, so what better place to remind myself of the good things in life than here? I see it daily and can change what I'm thankful for, reminding myself to appreciate the little (or big!) things each and every day.
My goal was to do something for $0.00, and mission completed. It's simple, but it's definitely encouraged me to focus on the positive this month so far, so it's worth it. This baby will be around each year.
Of course, I'm linking this up to Kim's Dare to DIY party. Go check out what everyone has done - and join too if you want!
I love the scrapbook paper you chose, and the font. I'm a font nerd. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to be thankful all year long.
So cute, Claire! I love the idea that you can change it anytime and be reminded all the time. Thanks so much for linking up to Dare to DIY. I really appreciate it and love seeing what you came up with.
