30 Before Thirty

I'm sad I haven't posted in awhile, things are crazy over in the June Craft household lately. I'm working on new projects for the shop and even a super secret, super awesome project that I hope I can share with you soon. I've also been working overtime with my full-time job (yuck) so, everything is "in-progress". I'm ready for things to settle down so I can finish something already! Speaking of finishing things...


Ever since I turned 29 in June, I've been working on a "30 Before Thirty" list. I finally finished it and I thought I'd share it with you seeing as I now only have 10 months to accomplish everything on here. I know these lists are becoming a tad cliche but to be honest I needed something to really push myself. I wish I could say I was excited about entering my thirties but to be honest, I don't really know how I feel about it. I know that it's no where near being "old" but at the same time it does feel old. Silly, I know. I'm hoping that tackling this list will help me see that there really is so much life left to live, so here's my list!
