What are your Goals for your Home, do you have a list or pictures of these goals?
How organized are they? Do you have a system that keeps you on track?
Or maybe you have done a vision board?
For me the vision board did not work out so great, I struggled with finding the right photo’s to actually put on a poster board.
A vision board on the computer didn’t work for me as well, because it was not always right in front of me.
So to solve this dilemma I designed something that still has my goals for my home and is a little easier for me to customize to my desires, always in front of me, and to keep me on track to achieve these goals.
Here is what I did
First: I took a tablet and went room to room.
I wrote each room at the top of a page and wrote down all the goals and ideas that I had for that room.
Next -This next step is to draw out the room on typing or graph paper (this does not have to be to scale, this is for your reference only) with the new ideas or goals.
Here are some examples…….
Living Room
- Move buffet to basement family room
- Replace large area rug
- Repaint
- Rearrange the room
Above is for the “easy to do” goals. Below is more of the remodeling goals.
Basement Bathroom
- Replace tub
- Replace flooring
- Remodel the old vanity
Below are the examples of drawings for these goals.
Make sure you are doing your drawing as you want it to Be after you have completed your goals for that room and on the back of the drawing, write out the goals that you have for that room.
I also did this with my front and back yards, drawing each on a separate piece of paper with all the goals listed on the back.
Examples….
Back Yard
- Build a sauna
- Redo fire pit
- Replace upper desk
After I have all the areas written and planned out, I put all the drawings together in plastic sleeves and hooked them together with a ring.
I hung them on a magnet on the refrigerator.
This is a great reminder of these goals because they are always in sight and never out of mind.
Every January I go over this packet to update my goals as well as to decide what will be completed in the new year.
This is a great way to set your budget for those projects.
As I complete a goal, I cross it off and go to the next goal.
I hope that these tips and questions will help you create, organize, and keep you on track with your homes goals.
But first ask yourself,
