It's September and for many, planning for the holidays is in full swing. In The Holiday Grand Plan, the finish of List Week is at hand and September 2 begins Question Week (asking ourselves WHAT IS DESIRED from observances/celebrations this year).
By the week of September 10, IF DESIRED, a HG Planner needs to be ready to accomplish (yes, actually accomplish) this assignment:
Buy all supplies for homemade gifts (or homemade decor). Package each project with directions and other information in zipper food storage bag and place in a basket or box in craft/sewing area.
Thoughts?
Here's a prompt for us... ... what if a friend asked for help/support that week, to accompany to stores, so you could BOTH purchase what you choose for this assignment? With that kind of reasoning from someone who really wants to get started (and not procrastinate), what would your Question Week for this assignment be like?
1) Thinking - what can I choose that I'll love doing but won't overwhelm
2) Planning - what do I already own, and can gather as supplies
3) Listing - "To Buy"s
4) Finding - hmmm ... ... where are some storage bags... ..
What do you need to do to get ready to ask the question? (This is where I am, btw.) Maybe some organization and straightening in that craft/sewing area? Discuss with the rest of the family so they know you want to prioritize some time for this?
Does a creative idea that's been percolating in your brain a while start coming to the surface? Are there more than one? Which is of first importance, in case "life happens" and you can't get to both?
