THANK YOU @AIMR for putting this together again!

I woke up to see 20 new threads this morning and boy was it nice to see that 50 Projects for the new year was one! WOO! I just added 118 and 119 to my 2020 list and today is busy enough that I don’t think I’ll make it to a nice, round 220 for 2020. However, I shan’t fret.

I mostly use every years’ thread to visually catalog that year’s accomplishments, but do like to put a few things on a list. I have never gotten all the things on the list done and I have never let that bother me, because I can see all the other things I made! :smile:

A few things I would like/should do in 2021 are (some are there from last year!):
Built-in bookcases
Redo the under-stairs pantry
Funsies for my Covid 50th Birthday
Something for a better backdoor firewood situation

The things I actually do/make will go here: WARNING: THERE COULD BE UNBLURRED PHOTOS THAT ARE NSFW

Nice list…I keep adding to mine but then I start something else not on the list…it will be interesting to see what I actually do…I still have about 20 things from 2020…so either they are “must do’s” that I am avoiding, or they need to leave my list…there is a reason they aren’t done, lol

I think this might be the year I re-do my old sewing machine chair…the last time I recovered it was probably ten years ago…it is looking a bit tired and dated…but it has piping on it and I remember what a pain it was to staple all of that on and then the fabric as well…but, I did get an automatic electric stapler…it is almost a weapon! lol

I seem to begin a list and then lurk for the rest of the year, so perhaps I shouldn’t bother with the list, and just go straight to the lurking? Hm…

4 Likes

Some people just aren’t list people! You can just keep track as you get your projects done…I find that I make more stuff off my list than on it! lol

5 Likes

I am totally a list person, but mostly lists of things I haven’t done yet rather than things I’ve finished with! (also, going back to add stuff was another layer of too much for my ADD to bother with…)

Maybe I should just try to add numbers to things & post them as I go along.

5 Likes

That is mostly how I participate! It’s a great memory aid; when I try to just remember what I made in the past [unit of time longer than a week or two] I always forget most of it. It’s so fun and satisfying to look back at my list here! In 2020, I just put a number and a pic for the most part and I gotta say that I love to scroll that post!

Me too. It’s fun to have a place to have all the completed projects in one spot and look back at all that was accomplished!
