A Life Well Crafted: October | Pay Attention!

Whether you find yourself in transition or in an established routine, it's important to pay attention to where you are on your life journey every step of the way. This month, we're going to focus on mindful appreciation for where we are, and consider ways that we can both celebrate our current situations and think about making changes to improve our current situations. It doesn't matter where you are in life -- you could find yourself at a crossroads at any moment, so it's always important to pay attention to where you are right now. This October, we'll document, reflect, and celebrate where we are as we transition into autumn with A Life Well Crafted.

With an inspiring slideshow presentation and two minibook projects (one created by guest designer Karen Grunberg, October offers you a bountiful month of ideas! Plus, Kolette has a fun "Life Tunes" layout project, and her fabulous downloadable quote designs for you. As always, Kolette and Jason have scheduled a live chat, and the classroom features a fun and busy message board, too. There's so much that we've prepared this month to help YOU stay in the moment -- so come join us in October as we pay attention!
