New Year Resolution/Upcoming year

My new year resolution for this year is to reduce my use of microplastics. I plan to do this by using less Acrylic paints (as they contain microplastics), avoiding washing out glitter lip gloss and avoiding cosmetics containing microbeads – even though I believe they’re banned now as off 2018.

This means in stead of using paint I plan to do a lot more applique featuring landscapes and dog portraits, As well as hopefully taking up embroidery more seriously so will be doing more of it this year.

I’d also like to get the material to make the dresses I’ve designed, as for Christmas I finally got the adjustable dress maker’s mannequin, I’ve always wanted. I truly can’t wait. I’ve been dreaming of this for around a year now, ever since I started watching project run way and cosplaying of making my own dress for the Christmas dance. Which you can look forward to reading towards fall of this year.

But what I’d like to happen most of all is maybe getting fabric printed with drawings of my dog on it. That way I could make my own ruck sack for school with tiny ditsy Labradors on it manly as I can’t find any descent dog bags any where else.

Finally, I know I’ve been saying this for a while, but I’d really like to publish a children’s picture book featuring either a fox-red Labrador, boxer dog or a bear, that I will paint it and write my self, with luck in time to be published for Christmas 2019. So keep an ear out, I’ll tell you when it’s done.

That pretty much what I have planned for 2O19. Obviously, there are loads of smaller things too, but they’re the main ones I wanted to share with you. As the experience will be posted here on Catsith Crafts throughout the year.

Any plans yet for 2019?, leave them in the Comments down below.
