As the year wanders
toward an end, my thoughts turn to this time last year, as well as
what next year may hold.
I have always liked
the tradition of making New Years Resolution, though I firmly believe
that it is not the only time one can start new resolutions. The trick
is to make them specific and not to be to overambitious.
Many things
conspired this year to stonewall my plans, from a shattered thumb to
moving house, and so my 2015 plans took a back seat.
With new house and
new year, my new resolutions finally take shape:
- Post once a fortnight here on Nightmare Couture blog.
- Write five gothic DIY tutorials.
- Keep a sewing journal of all sewing projects.
- Post dress diaries here on the blog.
- Finish 24 sewing projects.
- Finish 6 Historical Sew Monthly challenges.
- Put $100 into savings each month.
- Learn to play Fur Elise.
- Grow 2 types of black flowering plants.
- Complete 1 year of TAFE.

out one of my favourite youtubers, ItsBlackFriday, and her awesome
inspirational video on how to actually achieve your new years goals.
She puts it much better than I can.
What are some of
your New Years Resolutions? Do you like the tradition or think its
overhyped?
