Day 1 of the #100daysproject. I'm working on mixed Day 1 of the #100daysproject. I'm working on mixed media  postcards. The plan is to make 100 of them and share them out. 100 days feels like a long time, so I'm going to aim for perfection, but not measure my results by it. At this stage in life, I'm working on not creating false obligations. 🙃  Looking forward to seeing what everyone else is up to and to making room to create.

I JUST realized that I never shared this, although I JUST realized that I never shared this, although I alluded to it a year and a half ago! This was part of a collaborative project. A bunch of @glowforge owners made hexagon-shaped art (all different) on our Glowforges for a wall installation that we sent to the Glowforge staff. My contribution was an "I Spy" puzzle. I snuck in lots of little bits that I've been holding onto for ages, so it's fun to look at it and see them floating around. I even cut a little acrylic Glowforge symbol (and the letters!) to add to the mix. What would you put in an I Spy box?

Making and Giving the Gift of Fun

Vision Board Workshop Info

 

These are the supplies and printouts you’ll want to have on hand for the workshop. There are affiliate links below in case you choose to shop with Amazon (we make a small amount on each purchase), but you can buy your supplies locally and/or use what you have at home.

Virtual Kit Digital Files (right click on the links to save them):

Please print the following if you are able:

  • Inspiration words
  • Mask [Note: Feel free to cut the outline of the mask, but I suggest you leave the eyes intact. You may want to either cut this out of cardboard or place the mask on a cardboard backer.]
  • Circle time activity

 

Masks:
The print and cut template (above) will be just fine , but if you want to buy something, we recommend the Creativity Pulp Mask or similar that doesn’t have cut-out eyes. Paper masks will be easier than plastic. They typically retail for ~$2-3 each. That said, do not overthink this. You just need a mask shape and can always work around cut-outs, etc.
Here are a few Amazon options (affiliate links). They are overpriced and you’ll need to keep an eye on shipping time.

Required Supplies:

  • PVA Glue (white glue – you can also use decoupage medium)
  • Scissors and/or a craft knife
  • Two disposable (or non-food) cups/bowls
  • Foam or glue brush – you can also use your fingers if you don’t mind getting messy
  • Hand-outs, ideally printed out
  • A few extra sheets of paper
  • A pen or pencil – multiple colors would be nice
  • Paper towels and/or wipes
  • At least a few of the art supplies below

Recommended:

  • Something to protect your work surface
  • Markers or Watercolor paints
  • Thin-tipped waterproof pen (like a thin Sharpie)
  • Thin, colorful paper (tissue, crepe, handmade, etc.)

Totally Optional:

  • Crayons
  • Old/scrap Magazines
  • Scraps of fabric and fun papers
  • Lace, ribbon, yarn
  • Needle and thread/embroidery thread
  • Hole punch(es)
  • Rubber stamps w/pigment ink
  • Beads, buttons, rhinestones, gems, etc.
  • Alcohol inks
  • Acrylic paint
  • Hot glue gun
  • Craft knife
  • Any of your other favorite art/craft supplies

Preparation:

  • If you want your mask to have a background color, I suggest painting it in advance so the mask has time to dry.
  • Think a bit about what your goals are – what will your vision board be about? We’ll spend a bit of time on that, but it may help to have a general idea… work, family/relationships, personal growth, health, creativity, etc. You can also just keep it general if you don’t have a specific direction.
  • Water down glue, if using, with 3 parts glue to 1 part water – place it in one of the bowls/cups. If you don’t have a separate craft glue handy, save some of the PVA for adding embellishments
  • Add clean water to the second bowl/cup for washing brushes, fingers, etc.
  • Gather your tools/supplies
  • Protect your work surface and clothes, as needed
  • Try to find a quiet spot, turn off phones and notifications, put a do not disturb sign on your door (or your back), and be ready to focus on just yourself for a little while.

 

Please note:

This is a casual, fun, playful workshop. You should feel free to take breaks, run and grab a supply you forget, etc. You can share what you’re thinking and working on, or keep it to yourself. We’ll each have a different journey!
