I think it's time to retire my 30 Before 30 list. I started this list back in 2010 in anticipation of my 30th birthday. That birthday came and went, and I decided to give myself my 30th year to complete items, but to be quite honest, I mostly forgot about the list. Before it's retired from my blog, let's do one last recap:

These two were goals that I'm not comfortable sharing on the blog, but they're the ones that I am most proud of.
All-in-all, my 30 Before 30 list provided reminders of fun things to do that made me happy. Glad I made the list, but equally glad that I didn't stress out about doing these things, and I'm ready to move on!

Is it ok with you if I steal numbers 19, 21, 23, and 28? ha so pretty much 1/4 of them? No you are just genius! I love this idea and I love all the things you put. I love the labels you made for your sewing projects by the way. I love the font you used.
