Standing on the Cusp of a New Year


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.



 
For more tips, check 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?
