Week 1 – Project 365/52 Weeks

January 8, 2011 at 12:37 pm

Time to catch up on photos!

Proud to say I took a picture every day this week! Sometimes more than one! It’s a lot easier than I thought it was going to be :)

I bought myself an Eye-Fi Card this week, it wirelessly uploads photos from my camera AND my iPhone to my computer! Makes doing Project 365 and 52 Weeks much easier.

Here’s a catch up on this week’s photos:

2011 Goals and 002/365

January 2, 2011 at 9:11 pm

I’m jumping on the bandwagon and doing the whole 2011 goals thing! Hopefully I work a bit harder at this years than last years!

  • Take more photos
    • This should be easy with my new Jo Totes bag, and Project 365 and 52 Weeks!
  • Blog More
    • I’ve put together a blogging schedule for Craftee (see below!), and I will definitely be blogging all of my photography here
    • I’ve already planned out a new design for this blog. It involves me doing a lot of drawing! Once my Cintiq gets here I’m going to get started on it
  • Open an Etsy Shop
    • I’ve been coming up with ideas for my Craftee Etsy Shop. I hope to open it up in February!
  • Lose Weight
    • This was my goal last year, and I managed to lose some and then gain even more back. I’m doing weight watchers now, and we bought a treadmill!
  • Start Riding Again
    • I really want to start horseback riding again this spring/summer!
  • Save, save, save!
    • Self explanatory!
  • Thrift!
    • This year I want to spend more time exploring thrift and antique stores
    • I also need to go through my closet and give away all the clothes I no longer wear (or the clothes I think I’ll wear but never do!)

That’s all for this year. I need my goals to be attainable ;)

Now, on to day 2 of Project 365!

002/365

Put together a blog schedule on my chalkboard! Hopefully this will make it easier to blog on Craftee!

My messy workspace! Notice my awesome Photoshop shortcuts keyboard overlay.

I’m going to do Project 365 this year, as well as 52 Weeks.

For those who don’t know, Project 365 is a photography challenge to take one photo a day for a year. 52 weeks is another photography project to take one picture a week for a year!
I’m going to use Project 365 mainly for iPhone photos of my day, and 52 weeks will be geared towards SLR shots!

Here’s day 1 of project 365:

001/365 Momiji Doll

001/365 Pile of Yarn

001/365 Miss Piggy

001/365 Christmas Decorations

I’ll be back soon with my 2011 Goals!

Blogging via iPad

November 17, 2010 at 7:58 pm

Testing out writing posts via the WordPress app for iPad.



One new feature I like is that the app now it inserts an image tag once an image is uploaded. One of the main reasons I was afraid of using it was because this wasn’t a feature in the earlier days of WordPress for iPhone!

Things I still don’t like…
- Don’t know how to add in a link (without physically writing out the HTML)
- No way to add descriptions and other things to photos
- Guessing there’s no way to do this with links either

I wish the app would work exactly like the web version. Now I would use the web version and skip the app but it doesn’t function properly.

For now, the app works for my personal blog, and for comments on my craft blog. It just doesn’t get me much further than that!

I definitely need to re-purpose my blog and figure out what I want to do with it.
Between school, work and my craft blog I don’t ever feel like posting here.
Perhaps I just need to find something interesting to write about :)
