Control Journal Pages
Thanks to Eliza Badurina, of Moderngypsy and IN(ner) Question zine, who is applying and tweaking many of the organizational lessons to be learned from FlyLady to apply them more specifically to art girrls and stay at home artists (SAHA), I have been motivated to provide you with some fun pages for you to use in your mostly art-focused control journal as described at DoItNOW. Please feel free to print as many copies of the pages as you choose. You may also photocopy them. Just keep the copyright notice at the bottom attached.
Once you have your control journal assembled and have used it for a bit, please feel free to drop me a note at freebies@kurki15.com and let me know how the pages are working for you. If you have tips you wish to share on usin control journals send those along as well and I'll be adding a tips section. Do remember to include your web site and I'll link back to you as well.

- Weekly Menu (Left Side) - since I also use cooking to be creative, and being more organized on the home front makes it easier to create more art, I've designed a page to organize the food you will make for a week.
- Weekly Groceries (Right Side) - to go along with the menu, keep track of the groceries you need and make your trip faster by sorting them into the categories of your stores.
- Studio Supplies (Left Side) - keep track of the items you want or need for your art studio, sorted by supplier. Includes hardware and drug store headings in addition to art and craft stores or on-line vendors. - NEW!
