{planning} What Got Done in 2015, What Didn't, and What's On the List for 2016

By now you probably know that I'm a big list maker. Not only do lists help me remember what I want/need to get done, there is also something so satisfying about checking items off a list! In fact, when I finish a task that's not on my list, I've been known to add it to the list just so I can check it off.

Early in January of 2015, I shared a very ambitious list of projects I wanted to tackle during the year. Not surprisingly, I didn't come close to crossing off each item, but I also accomplished some pretty major projects that weren't on the list, so all in all, I would call 2015 a big success. Each success, however, comes with the reality of projects left unfinished and spaces worse off than they were a year ago. And since I promised to give you a full report of how we did, get ready for pictures of the good, the bad, and the ugly!

Of course, I've also re-prioritized and updated the list with a few new projects I aim to take on in the new year, so I'll be sharing my 2016 list as well!


MY 2015 LIST: WHAT GOT DONE & WHAT DIDN'T

Decorating Projects & Updates


Organizing Projects






2015 ACCOMPLISHMENTS THAT WEREN'T ON THE LIST

This is the fun part... where I get to add things to my list just so I can cross them off! These are the major projects I accomplished in 2015 that weren't even on the list!









2016 PROJECT LIST: DREAMING BIG

Now let's talk plans for 2016! Despite not coming close to completing last year's list, I'm dreaming big once again. I am setting lots of goals that span each area of my life, from personal and family to this blog, but for purposes of this list, I'll limit it to decorating and organizing projects:
Once again it's a long list...and it's on top of all of the craft and DIY projects that keep my mind spinning. I have high hopes for what I can accomplish in 2016, but I'll also be focusing on creating balance and enjoying lots of time with family and friends!

What projects are at the top on your list for 2016?
