12 Months of Goals - March

12MonthsofGoals
Last year I set 3 goals every month for myself and I accomplished a lot! This year, I wanted to down play it even more and just set ONE goal for myself. However, with just one goal each month I hope to devote more time to it. You can find an update on February's Goal below.


In March...
facetubeI'd like to create a Short Form Facebook video! I have been seeing these pop up all over Facebook and I've been interested in trying to do one myself. If you don't know what these are, it is a video that usually goes along with a blog post. It shows how to do something. The video is usually 30 seconds to 1 minute in length. I would like to show how to make a recipe in my video and then I'll have an accompanying blog post of the recipe to go with the video. 

I was working on creating some unboxing videos last year that I published on my You Tube page, but I haven't created a video in 5 months! Seriously, that is a long time. I've probably forgotten how to use iMovie! I also have Adobe Premiere with my Adobe Cloud membership and I should try and figure it out eventually... I mean, I am paying for it as part of my package, so why not? 

I did do a little research and investing in a tabletop tripod, a horizontal arm (which you'll need to counter balance the weight of it) for the tripod and a 24-70 mm (or wide angle lens) is the best for these types of videos. I thought a macro lens would be great, but it is actually not the way to go for these videos. Since this is my first video, I'm not going to look into buying this equipment until I see if this is something I'd be interested in continuing.

And, this isn't a goal for this month... but, I thought I'd bring it up since it also has to do with Facebook!

5 Ways to Bring Spring Into Your Home

The weather here in St. Louis has gone from 70 degrees to tornado watches/warnings and now to possible snow/ice this weekend. Whew! I am SO ready for Spring and for Daylight Saving Time. Today I'm sharing with you how to bring Spring to your home sooner with 5 Ways To Bring Spring Into Your Home . Bringing a little Spring into your home is rather easy. You don't need to change up your entire decor, at least not yet... What I try to do is add little touches here and there. 1. Spring Wreaths One way that I bring Spring into my home is by placing a Spring wreath on my front door or on some of the interior doors in the home. My absolute favorite Spring wreath that I've done is my Split Pea Wreath below, but I'm currently working on a Tulip wreath which I'll be sharing in a couple of weeks! I'm also sharing a couple of other Spring wreaths that I've made below: Split Pea Wreath with Burlap Bow Some other Spring wreaths I've designed:   Simple Spring Hoop Wrea...

Creating a Wider Doorway

My kitchen has no outside walls. That means it has no windows directly to the outdoors. UGH. I love light, I love sunshine streaming through windows and lighting up my house. This was not the case in my kitchen. Last year I renovated the space and added a pass through window in one of the walls.  Now the sun can reach the kitchen - hooray!!  But it is still not a terribly well-lit space. Cue my desire to open the wall between the living and dining rooms - the dining room is the brightest room in the house.  That, however, will be a big job because the wall is a supporting wall (at least I'm treating it that way, even if the building inspector didn't think it was).  I decided to tackle the opening from the living room into the kitchen instead since I know for sure that wall isn't supporting.
