Welcome to No/Lo. I decided to create weekly challenges to motivate & inspire myself & others to stop shopping (or shop mindfully) and start crafting. You do not have to post a project to participate in No/Lo. You can just check-in about your week, spending or otherwise & know that someone is listening. You can confess your shopping “sins” if you like Yes, for sure, you can post your projects here! NO/LO Dec 8, 2017 CHECK-IN: No spending at all. I saw my Black Friday credit card bill (ouch). MY PROJECT CHALLENGES THIS WEEK: Ongoing “This is Me Now” page & December Daily. Your PROJECT CHALLENGE THIS WEEK: In honor of the season. Make a project about “giving” or a gift that you have given or received. A favorite gift. A gift that filled you with joy to give or receive. The story can be from your distant past or even an upcoming gift that you will give this Christmas season. CARDMAKER CHALLENGE: Make a “gift card” card (any occasion card, it doesn't have to be Christmas). DECEMBER DAILY ORGANIZATION CHALLENGE: Make a list or page of all the gifts you are giving this season and to whom. With or without photos. BONUS POINTS: Stamp your background Use “presents” on your project Bust out your stash of Christmas ephemera and find something “tinsel-like” to feature on your project.

All my black Friday purchases have been rolling in which is both exciting and a little terrifying because there is so. much. stuff. It hasn't all been scrapbooking though as I bought a few gifts but even so, my local delivery guy must be getting sick of coming to my house since they are all arriving on consecutive days.
No spending for me this week. I'm seriously thinking about doing a total freeze for at least 6 months next year to try and use some of the things I own.

Chinagirl828 I think I discovered this year that I'm semi okay from March to Sept, but Sept to December, Oh Boy! This year my goal is no spending as of Jan 1 until Aug 31.
