My life is all about lists. I make lists for literally everything…
1. packing
2. things to do on each day
3. lists of items to complete each day for the blog
4. cleaning lists
5. Wish lists…:)
…see here I go making a list again:) I recently had to give up on a notebook that I had written down all of my projects on. There was no organization at all and it was killing me. I had like six different pages with projects on them because I would write them out, then start drawing out what I wanted, run out of space and then go to a new page…urgh. So annoying! I went ahead and made this so that I could keep track of my projects by the category that they belong in.
There are three boxes at the top that are blank. You can either write the categories in by hand, or use the latest photo editing software, like Pic Monkey to fill in the blanks for your specific categories. My categories that I am using now are:
1. Crochet-mainly baby items for a friend
2. Sewing-never stops…I love it..
3. Wedding-(no not mine, a friends that I am helping out with)…the list is getting a bit out of hand, but I am loving every minute of it.
Using the boxes to the left of each line, I am able to either prioritize them by giving them a number, or check them off when they are done. I made these about a week ago and I have so many printed out. This way, when something pops in my head (usually when I am laying down at night before bed), I can quickly write it down on the next project sheet and I am good to go.
I hope this helps you guys out as much as it has helped me. I really enjoy having lists, but I think the reason is because I absolutely heart crossing off items! There is something about a completed to-do list that is so fulfilling. I have a serious issue with this.
**Please only use these free printables for personal use. If you decide to post it on your site, please provide a linkback. Thank you.**
What three categories would you put your projects into? Baking, Sewing, Crochet, Knitting, Scrapbooking….the possibilities are endless!! So fun!

You sound so organized! When I make lists I usually loose them. Organizing with these might work – put them in a loose-leaf binder so they can be organized in the book, too. Thanks for sharing.
