Creating a Dream Journal using Katie Daisy Workbook~Video 1

I have fallen in love with the new Katie Daisy “How to be a Wildflower” book and the workbook that goes along with it. I mentioned a couple of weeks ago at the Pajama Party that I wanted to start a new dream journal. almost as a LIFE vision board. Well… the workbook is perfect with it’s illustrations and travel ideas…so I decided it would be perfect. BUT then I wanted room to add other things..life my LOVE for coffee and learning to be a Barista, and some the obsession with A-Frame homes. I took one of the Old Better Homes and Gardens Cookbooks and repurposed it into my journal. Here is the video of that process!!
