one hundred things

I've started a journal, which I haven't done for a long, long time. I was inspired by the amazing Keri Smith, who has a little diy project called 100 ideas. I forgot what it was called as I was titling my journal, so mine is called "one hundred things." But you get the idea. Also, I prefer to spell out numbers.

It's probably obvious by now that I like to break the rules.

34. Fill an entire page in your journal with small circles. Color them in.

43. Recall your favorite childhood game.

55. Make pencil rubbings of six different surfaces.

A little bag I stapled to the back hold the slips of paper with "things" or "ideas" on them.

All wrapped up and cozy.
