Save The Date | Week In The Life 2011
Save the date for Week In The Life 2011 : July 25th through July 31st.
This year I've decided to document a week in our lives during the summer. Why? A look at what our lives look like in the summer months will be a really nice way to round out my Week In The Life album collections.
It's likely that I'll have a new design for the album this year - still in the 8.5x11 format.
I know one of the questions that people will have is what's the difference between this project and Project Life and will I be doing both? I will be doing both. The main difference for me is that Week In The Life is much more in-depth over the course of seven days. I do at least a full two+ page spread for each day with much more detailed journaling. My plan is to keep on doing Project Life like I am right now - little bits over the course of the week. It's likely that the photos might be repeats and I'm totally fine with that.
Read all about this project from both 2008 and 2010 here: Week In The Life.

I'm in too. Was planning on doing it around that time this year as for me it will be Winter and that's when I haven't done it before. We will have a newish baby so will be a bit of a challenge- I may have to buy the templates to make my life easier.

So glad that this is being offered in the summer. Count me in! So far these past couple of months I have participated in the December Daily, Yesterday/Today, and I am almost completed with my "Scrapbook on the Road" journal. Bring it on!

This will be an interesting year for my Week in the Life project. My regional management meeting will be held that week in Burlington, MA. I am really looking forward to it because I went to college in Boston and will be able to visit some of my old stomping grounds. It will be a different perspective! Great time for this project! Thanks, Ali!

Ooooh, a summer Week in the Life...that should be interesting to experience, since summer is (typically) a different, slower pace than the springtime. Look forward to more news as the time gets closer...

I'm there! Love this project and have participated in the previous WITL's, such a cool way to document our lifes. It will be the first week of my boys summer holidays and the day after my youngest son turns 6, I'm sure there'll be lots to document!

I swear you are reading my mind. I was just wondering when the 2011 one would because I have never done a week in the life and not sure why I can't do it on my own. I guess because it will be so much more fun with other people (and motivating!). I am so there!

I've never really considered doing a Week In The Life but during those dates I'll have a one month old in the house. That could be interesting to document - those blurry first few weeks!

That gives me a couple more months to finish last years! It will be winter here in Australia, so will think about following along. I need to be more disciplined in actually getting it finished! Enjoy your holiday.

Cool, Ali! :) I had already decided to do "Week in the Life" this year, and now it's actually on the week of my birthday -- July 31. :) I would like to prep ahead of time too, so I will be watching to see what suggestions you have for that. :)

Hey Ali, I really truly love your blog and projects section it is a daily inspiration for me. I have loved observing your current years Project Life however living in Australia, I find the page protectors and some of the cool product (which really makes/finshes the project) hard to obtain eg: Project Life from Amazon could not be shipped here and some of the other products double in cost with postage from America so I was wondering if you are able to point me in the right direction in obtaining just as cool stuff or the same here in Australia??? Thanks Tania.
Tania do you know that you can buy Project life from New Zealand a shop in Wellington sells it crafthouse, i think Becky has a link on her blog somewhere...as for the page protectors i buy the basketball card ones off trade me her in NZ but i think most book shops sell them same sort of thing that Ali uses and this range im going to buy for week in a life as i think its just perfect, not sure if you can get it over there but this is a NZ shop http://scrappinpatch.co.nz/shop/index.php?cPath=676_1259 its BoBunny brand and Ad Lib stuff very cool cool sayings like life is great and every day life etc.... just my thoughts shared :)
