Craft a day Sept’
August 30, 2009 | Filed in: Cads, Craft

Since I did so poorly in the Make Something Cool Everyday in April task I thought I would start my own for the month of September and see how I get on. It should be a lot easier now because I am really getting into this blogging malarkey and I have loads of free time.

Come join me in my task! There are no rules as such so your craft could be anything from knitting to photography to a painting or even a piece of poetry! Leave a comment below if your taking part and I will add you the the ‘cads’ blog roll. I will be keeping track of all fellow Cads attendees closely and will update the list when we get new people involved. You can join at anytime, don’t worry if your a few days or months in, everyone is welcome and don’t worry if you miss a day or a week or something, I won’t tell you off!

Really looking forward to this, it will be a good motivational method for me and hopefully inspire some fellow crafty bloggers. Here is a couple of badges to put on your blog to let everyone know that you are partaking in it, make sure it links back to this post and Happy Crafting! :)

I am thrilled to have something to give me a kick to finish all the projects and ideas filling up my notebooks. Should we be sending you photos or just posting on our own blogs? Today is the 4th but I’ve been playing with my new Cricket all week and doing swaps so I’m calling that on task so far. Let’s have some fun!

Hi Jane, nice to meet you and thanks for taking part in CADS:) Generally the way it works is you create and post about it on your blog and I will add you to my CADetteS list and be taking a look every day or so to see how your getting on. A little blog about this project would be nice too with, a link back to this post, so that people can know what your doing and see if anyone else want’s to get involved:)

Look forward to seeing your many projects!

I want to get in the habit of actually finishing projects, and this will be a great (and public!) way to kick myself in gear. Thanks!
