How to create a new vision board to be revealed on Thanksgiving Eve by Flutterbyflyby3

"Easier the second time, because I knew more what I wanted."

How I did it: I floundered around a bit when Sky first said we should do it again.  Then I realized that was my focus!  Once I knew what I wanted it was just a matter of finding what I wanted.  I print pics off the net so I dig for specific images that speak to me.

Coping with my mental illnesses is a lot of my Vision Board's theme.  I found it hard to locate images that were positive to represent them.  I think that is a real telling thing.  I have issues & will live my life with them.  They are a part of me - but they are NOT all of me! Keeping the focus positive was the hardest part of creating this board.

My Dad's cat supervised the construction for the second year in a row.  She seems unusually interested in the process.  It was rather nice to have a companion without judgments as I put it together.

Lessons & tips: For me finding my theme - my focus is the most important step.  Then I just think about the things that I want to portray on my board.

Resources: Internet
Imagination
GLUE STICKS (I went thru 2 this year)
Pictures
Construction paper
SHARP scissors
Having a set goal deadline!!!

Thanks Jen!

I like your idea of the door, makes the entire door your vision board!

I found the OCD saying while looking for positive images for my vision board. I really like it, too!

we did a vision board

at work, and it turned out really nicely. I was pleased at the participation. Going to turn it into a Wall of Fame now for all the good customer comments we are getting.
