Alie Gonzalez-GuyonSoooo I’ve committed to posting a new project every week.
I’m still waiting for this first one to dry so here’s a teaser!
The goal for each week is to make the project, create a video showing how I made it, write up a guide for how to make it yourself & post on hackster, AND post it on Etsy incase anyone wants me to make them one. Cause you know, a girls gotta eat.
Am I overly ambitious, probably?
Is it a good idea, definitely!
Will I be able to keep it up, follow me to find out! 😅
funvill@AlieGG In 2015 I did a '100 days of making' project, where I made and posted a new project every single day for 100 days. It really burned me out but I completed it

In 2023 I did something similar where I came up with a new project idea every day for 100 days. Coming up with ideas is surely easier right?

Here is the retrospective from the 2023 project that you might find interesting

@funvill a project a day is INTENSE! Great job completing it.
What was your takeaway/ benefits you saw from the two challenges?
@AlieGG I go into it in detail in this post https://blog.abluestar.com/100-ideas-2023-retrospective/
I was able to quickly learn how to design projects for a laser cutter. I also got into the process of creating every single day so it became a lot easier over time.
I started both of these projects as escapism from other problems (For all the wrong reasons)
JWcph, Radicalized By Decency@AlieGG I'm in awe of your decision, as my own is more like "Posting a video to my YT maker channel every 3-4 weeks" & I'm very much struggling with keeping even that pace 😂
@jwcph Yeaaa it’s hard! I’ve kept up the making a project a week cadence but have had difficulty making the videos and all the other stuff every week
