Happy New Year & Introducing My Planner Series

Hello my crafty friends and followers and Happy New Year. I'm so excited to be starting a new year on my blog. I've got some new and exciting additions for the 2016 New Year. I'm always looking for fun and new ways to use my craft supplies. Like many of you, I occasionally decide to make a resolution or two. This year I have a couple goals. The first is to find ways to get myself more organized. One way will be by using a planner. Have you heard about the planner decorating craze. Go to Pinterest and search Planners/Organization and you'll see all kinds of great ideas. Each week on Monday I will have a Plan With Me blog post. I'll show you how I decorate my planner for the week. I have chosen a MAMBI Happy Planner for this endeavor. The main reason I chose this planner is A) Cost and B) the pages are easy to remove and decorate. Here are this week's calendar pages. Next week I'll go into more detail on my week's pages, but today's post is already too long.

My other goal is to finally get my craft supplies organized into my new storage unit. Some of you know a little background about my life style. For those of you that don't, hubby and I retired about six years ago. We spent a couple years traveling around the country in an RV, then we decided to buy a permanent Park Model RV in an Adult 55+ community in Florida.  We've been micro living happy as two little clams in a shell. Last year we decided to sell the camper up north and move to Florida permanently. Now we have taken the plunge and added a little more space to our home. From this construction we have room for my piano that has been stored at our daughter's for three years and room for an oak Amish built hutch cabinet. That cabinet is now going to be where I store my craft supplies. So I'll share a little of the process to get my supplies organized into it. Once things are in place I'm hoping to start making some craft videos. Here is a picture of the cabinet that will eventually hold all my craft supplies. Right now things are just sort of thrown in, but I have a plan that will slowly and surely take place.

I'll also be sharing some FUN new products that are coming out from The Cutting Cafe, Cardz TV stamps and Paper Sweeties. It's going to be a fun year! Thanks for stopping by!
