feeling a little persnickety around here.

Monday, September 10th, 2012

Most of you know that I’ve been heavily involved in the content development for my first-ever online class. What a thrill to hear about so many of you that are already registered!

Just in case this is news to you – you can read all about my class HERE. So much heart & soul is being poured into each week’s content. I’m truly being persnickety (my new favorite word) about the details of what I share with students. I’m doing slide show presentations + videos + pulling together more tips + tricks than I ever have since my days of publishing books. It is so much work and so much fun.

I feel deeply that this class will be greatly beneficial to my students – whether you’re brand-new to memory-keeping, or you’re a dedicated Project Lifer with albums full of memories. Whether you want to roll up your sleeves and accomplish a LOT of stuff in your life (inside + outside of the album) … or if want to sit back and just watch + read what I’m sharing.

For example, my current work at the moment is a video tour of just about every organizational spot – in just about every room – in our home. You’ll even get to see my junk drawers and other stuff that’s not so organized. You’ll either watch just to watch … or you’ll watch and get to work on sprucing up some organization in your own home. Do what you want. Don’t do what you don’t want to do.

Be sure to consult my big Q+A post if you have questions about Project Real Life. Super packed with helpful info.

One really fun thing about my class is that we’ve designed a set of Project Life cards to go in your Project Life album for our 12 weeks together – 4×6 Title Cards and 3×4 Quote Cards. All double-sided so that you can choose vertical or horizontal format. All rounded corners. All excellent print quality. All graphically designed by Lili Niclass. And all printed + delivered by … Persnickety Prints!

NOTE: All of the exclusive card designs will also be available in digital format for Project Real Life students.

What is so fun about Persnickety Prints is that their name is sooo what they’re about – picky and particular about the details. If you’re not already familiar with Persnickety, you should be. Because you take pictures. And you love your pictures. And you care about having quality prints of your memories – without breaking the bank. Simply put – they are awesome.

I hand-selected them to print the Project Real Life cards for my students. I choose them to print my own personal pictures. And guess what else? They are totally Project Lifers themselves! They totally GET what we’re doing – what you’re doing.

Which means … in addition to all the other sizes they offer, they even print 3×4 and 4×4 and 6×6 and 6×12. (Check out all their pricing HERE.) And … they’ll even round your prints’ corners for you with the same corner radius (3/8″) as our Project Life cards if you want! Hello, awesome sauce. In their pricing list, you’ll see options listed as “Project Life” prints. Those are all the sizes of the pockets you’re familiar with in our Photo Pocket Pages.

And no, we’re not making money off this. We just really, really love that Persnickety gets us, gets Project Life, and gets you.

PS – I got to meet Chari (she runs Persnickety and puts her heart & soul into what she does) last month. Instant BFFs. It’s bound to happen when you bond over memory-keeping and entrepreneurship.  : )
