It's summer, which means I finally have time to tackle all the projects that come up during the school year. I've also been inspired by last year's cleaning and purging of a friend's apartment and classroom, prior to her cross-country move. And it just feels good to live light. Here's my summer-project list. I'm really good at starting projects, but less good about finishing them, so maybe some public-post accountability is what I need. ha ha
Clear out old semester exams (I have 7 years of exams in a file cabinet in my classroom)
Clear out old college notes and books (I moved these across the country twice. Twice too many.)
Shred pay stubs (how many do I need to keep, anyhow?)
Clean out old cosmetics (my morning routine is significantly shorter than it once was, and there's a bunch of stuff in my train case that I never use)
Jewelry repair (need to fix a bunch of things that broke this year)
Make some fun headbands with feathers and ribbons
Give new life to a marker-stained skirt (I think maybe with buttons to camouflage the stain)
Finish knitting some scarves for friends
Teach myself to crochet
Make some felted cup cozies - maybe my coffee shop can sell some?
Make postcards from my travel pictures
Make a vintage-cookbook-page wreath
