Vision Boards Vision boards are by far one of my favorite things to craft! I have a set routine that I use to make mine but this is a crafty task so feel free to get creative! Here are my steps to creating a vision board
“A vision board is a tool used to help clarify, concentrate and maintain focus on a specific life goal. Literally, a vision board is any sort of board on which you display images that represent whatever you want to be, do or have in your life.” -Makeavisionboard.com Supplies
1. You will need a poster board (any size you want. I like doing page size (8.5”x11”) or standard size (20”x29”). You can always cut it to a smaller size with a ruler and exacto knife. 2. Colorful paper if you want to cover the white or black board and to add color. 3. Collected images and words/phrases from on-line (printed out) and magazines. 4. Glue or double-sided tape to attach to board 5. Scissors or a paper cutter 6. Markers or paint if you want to add your own designs and words 7. Whatever else you want to add to your board
Steps to create an effective vision board
1. Figure out what your theme is. In this particular case we are focusing on a body positive board! 2. Create a color palette. This is optional but if you have a color that is impactful or your favorite then you may look for images with these colors but again, not required! 3. Look for photos and meaningful words and phrases to add . Look for photos that show a healthier lifestyle that you want, maybe someone with a similar body type to what you want but make sure it is realistic for your goals. They can come from magazines or print them off line. 4. Attach your photos and phrases to the board and decorate it until your hearts content! 5. Place board where you will see it everyday. I’ve created an example of a vision board on the next page!
