1 // Branch out of my usual green and blue color palette when painting. As much as I love them, variety is the spice of life! Or so I’ve heard…
2 // Finally start the Anne of Green Gables series. (I’ve been saying I will for how many years now?)
3 // Pull out my pastels and colored pencils again. I’ve missed them.
4 // Finish a novel. And start another one.
5 // Bring my vision for illustrations for my poetry chapbook to life.
6 // Get outside more often.
7 // Bake something with lemon and blueberries. I don’t think I did this at all during spring or summer last year, so it definitely needs to happen!
8 // Cook a new dish.
9 // Read a book a week. Hopefully!
10 // Plan an adventure. (I may have one in the works.)
WHAT WILL YOU DO THIS SPRING?

April 6, 2016 at 7:40 amGreat list! It’s a good variety of being productive, treating yourself, and being creative! I like the idea of a seasonal wishlist.

April 13, 2016 at 6:03 pmThanks Emily! That’s what I was going for with the list. 🙂 I’ve already started working on my seasonal wishlist for the summer. A few things came to mind one day so I wrote them down.

April 6, 2016 at 8:26 amThose are all great goals! I am curious: by finish a novel and start a new one, do you mean you are writing a novel, or do you just mean you want to read one and start another? haha.

April 13, 2016 at 6:04 pmThanks! Finish a novel that I’m writing and start a new one. I’m hoping I’ll read more than one. 🙂

April 6, 2016 at 8:40 amLove the variety in your list! I’ve recently found The Miracle Morning and I’m committing to doing it practicing it for the month of April 🙂

April 13, 2016 at 6:05 pmThanks Theresa! I’ve heard really good things about that book. It was one of the Kindle daily deals sometime last week so I bought it. 🙂

April 6, 2016 at 10:33 amI too will get out more this spring and I too hope that I can start creating more art. I say I have for some time now and never do.
Still haven’t read Anne of Green Gables. MY sister LOOOOVES them.
Crystal // Dreams, etc.
April 13, 2016 at 6:07 pmWe’ll both do it this spring! 🙂
I haven’t read any of them either, but so many people love them! (Including my sister. :)) I’m looking forward to finally checking that off my list.

April 6, 2016 at 11:50 amMmh, bake something with lemon and blueberries….that sounds so good! Love all of this! A lot of reading! Wish I had more time to read an actual book – I always get the audio books so I can knit while I “read”.
Crystal // Dreams, etc.
April 13, 2016 at 6:08 pmI think that’s one of the things I’m most looking forward to! I need to make more time for reading actual books. I haven’t been diligent about that this year, but I need to. I love audiobooks for being able to do other things while “reading” too.
Caroline
April 6, 2016 at 11:56 amI am all about getting outside and trying new adventures. I love your wish list 🙂 I should make one!
Crystal // Dreams, etc.
April 13, 2016 at 6:08 pmThanks Caroline! I’d love to see it if you do. 🙂

April 6, 2016 at 12:15 pmI’m really into seasonal living and love that you make a seasonal wishlist. I’ve got a little spring bucket list I just posted on my blog, but I feel like I need to add bake something with lemon and blueberries on it. 🙂
Crystal // Dreams, etc.
April 13, 2016 at 6:18 pmI love seasonal living too. I checked out your spring bucket list and saw a few things that I need to add to mine! 🙂

April 6, 2016 at 3:54 pmI have a huge goal to be outside more too!

April 13, 2016 at 6:18 pmIt’ll be so nice to spend some time in the fresh air.

April 8, 2016 at 8:26 amGood luck with your novel (and with the next one!). This is so exciting! x

April 13, 2016 at 6:19 pmThanks Charlotte! 🙂

April 8, 2016 at 9:31 pmFor your recipe you should make blueberry lemonade! It’s amazing. We made some last year on the blog and pretty much drank the whole gallon immediately.
Crystal // Dreams, etc.
April 13, 2016 at 6:19 pmThat sounds really good! I’ll have to look at blueberry lemonade. 🙂

April 10, 2016 at 9:26 amThis Spring I’m hoping to write my PMP exam (finally) and I also want to get big into baking with my sourdough starter!

April 19, 2016 at 10:33 amFreshen up our porch, deck and make them “outdoor living” friendly. We didn’t spend enough time outside last year, and springtime is the best time to do the prep work, when it’s still nice and comfortable outside.
Crystal // Dreams, etc.
April 20, 2016 at 1:14 pmSounds like you have some great plans for spring! It’s definitely the best time to get some of those outside projects done. It’s not too hot yet! 🙂
