These are my pages for this week.
I didn't get a chance to fill my week in as I was making these pockets for my journal.
Tonight was the Walking Dead, and I don't do anything when my show is on ;)
I was thinking the other night (as I was in bed, trying to go to sleep) of putting my chore list on my pages, but in a way where I can move them from week to week.
At first I thought I would laminate my lists in a dashboard form.
But then I had a genius idea….okay, maybe not genius, but I think it is pretty darn clever ;)
I remembered I had these name tag badge holder thingies.
I bought them a very long time ago, I think from the dollar store.
I thought they would work perfectly.
I printed up my chore charts.
I clean a room a week. I may not get them all completed in that week, but if I don't get them completed, I just start again on that week when the time comes around again.
I printed them on pattern paper, inked the edges and then did a bit of stamping.
I then used my hand punch (the same one I used when I was a papergirl as a kid, yup I still have the punch…..40 yrs later) to punch the plastic holders so they fit in the binder rings.
As you can see here, I added some pattern paper to the back of the chore charts, we like things pretty :)
I also like this as I can write with an erase pen, on the blank back for other things I may need to do or remember and can then erase it later.
Ohhh but thats not all.
I also made a video on how I made them with more information :)
If you would rather watch the video on my YouTube channel, for the full screen, just click on my link "Tracy's Treasures24"
Can you believe I didn't post for 2 days in a row!!
I can't believe it either.
I hope you all had a very Creative Sunday :)
Tracy :)

This is such a cool and creative idea! I write my list in my planner, week after week after week. This seems much more manageable and not repetitive at all.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, the Flylady Zones What an awesome idea, it's hard to remember all of that "stuff" but to have it right in front of you to read. Awesome I must watch your video and hmm think I might start to journal.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool idea. Love the traveling chore chart and such a pretty little planner you have.

Yes, definitely genius!!!! I had to watch the video to see how you attached them :) I have my weekly cleaning attached to a bookmark that I move around each week.
