re learn the books of the bible and stop cussing sooo much!! :) love ur blog!!!
one of my new years resolutions is to "invite more" especially my girlfriends. invite out to eat, over for dinner, to the beach, whatever. just hang out time. i get so caught up with each week it's easy to let it pass me by without doing something fun and sharing it with a friend.
Hi! what a fun idea this is! :)
My new year resolution is to kick myself in the butt (but not too hard you know ;) to stop dreaming my life but rather take those dreams and make them happen. Take action even if it's one small step at a time :) Give myself more creative time is the main idea.
So... Happy New Year to you Bri! DLF is very inspirational and fun to look at and read!
The bag is adorable!
My new year's resolution is to start doing what I love more often! :)
You inspired me to make non-resolutions. =D One was to keep up the blogging and to try blogging more.
Some of my new year's resolutions:
- stop worrying about little stupid things/people
- start training aikido
- spend more time in nature
Great blog!

I'm an insomniac. My resolution is to take back my nights. I'm going to cultivate habits that will help me sleep more and better.

This bag is TDF.
I'm not big on resolutions, but my goal for 2011 is to be a better friend. Keeping in touch is hard, but necessary! So, hopefully 2011 will be the best year for making new and cherishing old friends! ...and winning adorable new bags!
Love this bagggggg! NYR: Try new things, and spend the year only doing things I love. I've already signed up for pottery classes knitting classes, and cooking classes!
I am going to spread love. If a car cuts me off on the 101 I am going to send the driver love. If a coworker steals my lunch, I will send them love. Right now I'm sending love to this bag. So simple! Right?
This bag is the bomb... LOVE IT!
I want to pay special attention to slowing down and enjoying the quiet moments that I often rush through.
to accept change with open arms, to welcome insecurity as the mark of growth and humility, and to maintain sanity! forward!
love this!
my resolution is to travel more, in the us and internationally. this bag could hold my camera, sketchbook, etc on all my journeys!

thanks!
i've actually made a growing list of resolutions or "to-dos" as i'm calling them but i guess the overarching theme of it all is to make 2011 all about me. taking healthier steps..for myself. reading more for pleasure..for myself. writing more..for myself. etc. 2011, the year of living selfishly, for once.
2011, the year of living selfishly. that's my resolution. making better decisions for myself, not for anyone else. taking healthier steps..for myself. reading more for pleasure..for myself. etc. the bag will just help me look fabulous while doing it!
Love the stripes!! My plans are to trim up my figure... lose those 10 extra pounds!

Sweet bag! My resolution is to move into my new home and furnish it with all unwanted, thrifted items. I'm so excited to see what I come up with. My second resolution is to Enjoy the process!
My only resolution is to try something new every week. It can be as simple as cooking a new dish, going sky diving, or winning an amazing bag from one of my favorite blogs (ahem. hint hint.)!
My NYR is to live the moment as much as I can while looking into the future. And I'd look great doing that with this bag!

my new years resolution is to fall in love with where i live again. i've been getting thoroughly fed up with grimey, crazy-busy London lately and after 20+ years have been dreaming of moving away to the countryside.
but i'm really not ready to turn from citymouse to countrymouse quite yet so i need to be happy where i am and not wishing i was somewhere else.

Elizabeth

My NY's resolution is to Savor the Moment....stop worrying and rushing and enjoy life and my family.

My boyfriend and I just moved to Greenpoint, Brooklyn so instead of making resolutions this year, we made a list of 50 things to do around New York City!

I love this bag...so great!

to be aware of each decision i make and to live in the moment!
I want to give back more, help more, teach more.
Holy shit, yes please!
I don't typically do resolutions, but this year I decided to change that. So I made 12. They're more like goals than resolutions, though. I'd probably say that the one I'm MOST hoping to achieve though is the finish-the-house-renovation one. That's the one that will kick my ass.
So IN LOVE with this bag!! As far as resolutions go: be my authentic self, stay curious, learn to sew. xoxo
love this bag! my new year resolution, is to eat more bacon. yum!

my resolution:
to make IT happen!
I was inspired by you to make a Non-Goals list but I did make one resolution and that is To actually DO all the things I feel inspired to do. :)
Take care, your blog is wonderful!
My resolution, having left a big city for michigan, is to not be a design snotty but with this bag....
Plant a real garden this year!
this bag is so dope. i want it. i got to have it.
my resolution is to get some. not just some, but a lot. i'm gonna start there.
seacrest-out.
That is a fantastic bag! (I'll cross my fingers)
I've got lots of resolutions for 2011...but the most fun is to take more photos (with the aim of becoming a better photographer).
New Years Resolution= Hair Balls. Yes, thats right, hairy balls.
ahhhh I love the stripes on this bag! Adorable!
My resolution: let creativity have space in my life. Take less time stressing over big things that I can't change and put more emphasis on the little things.
My new years resolution for 2011 is to become more creatively inspired. I've started an inspiration board to get me started. This bag could help me collect beautiful objects!
I moved to the city because I wished to live deliberately.
It’s January 5th and I still haven’t posted my New Years resolutions.. perhaps my first resolution should be to do things in a timely manner. Unlikely though.
Anyway, I have the same general resolutions that I think I always have. Eat well, exercise more, drink my 8 glasses of water, and be kinder. My most important resolution this year though is mindfulness. This includes being more conscious of myself, my thoughts, my work, my overall well-being, and especially my interactions with other people. How I treat others, how they treat me, and how I feel about my friendships and relationships. I’d like to be more mindful and aware in my everyday life, while also allowing everyday situations (especially ones of little importance) to affect me less. I sweat the small stuff hardcore, and I need to stop.
I will make an effort to be more in touch with myself through reflection, new activities, and less online tv (had to throw that one in there). 2010 was a year of discovery, persistence, moving on, and new situations and environments. 2011 will be a year of reflection and greater consciousness.
Happy 2011 everyone!
