February is my favourite month of the year. Mainly because my birthday is in the month of February, so even better! January is almost over which means it's time for another monthly resolution. This month is inspired by Gemma over at Gemsmaquillage and her Jar of Happiness. I read her post on it and was inspired to start my own jar. Why didn't I start it in January I hear ya ask? Well, I thought February would be more fitting as it's my birthday month and it's also Chinese New Year so in honour of my ethical origin, February will start my year off.
The idea behind the Jar of Happiness is to fill it with things throughout the year that will serve as a reminder for that year. I feel 2013 will be a year full of adventures, friends and exciting things! It will sit on my cupboard/dresser and it will be a constant reminder for me to take exciting opportunities in an effort to fill up the jar with awesome memories.
I bought this jar from TK Maxx for about £1.99 but you can use any jar you like and I tied a craft ribbon around it to make it more special and unique. Once items start flying into it, it will look amazing!
Have you tried the Jar of Happiness before? Did it push you to take more exciting opportunities?
