{A Year Of Doors} a little update

No, I haven't finished another door already (although I have been getting stuff together today to start working on the March door, which I could probably easily get done in one day/afternoon, but I don't plan on starting on it really today), but I do have a quick little update.  If you read my original post about the series you may remember that I said the "A Year Of Doors" title wasn't set in stone. Well, I was looking for a folder or something to put all my notes and sketches and such for the project in and started to pull out just a plain black folder and then noticed a folder that I had picked up at Walmart sometime in the past but hadn't used for anything yet that has "Hello" printed on it and I thought, oh that's a good folder for a project of front doors.  Then, after getting my stuff somewhat organized and in the folder I realized that "hello" could also be good for the title for the series.  So the official name for the series is now "'Hello!': A Year Of Doors"

My folder that inspired the name change (or I guess more like addition), and that is keeping all my notes, sketches, and plans together and semi organized

Along with the new title though I also came up with a little challenge for myself: to incorporate "hello" into as many of the scenes as possible. (Ideally I'd say the challenge is to have it in all of them in some way shape or form, but I don't want to be putting it in just for the sake of it being there and it not blend well with the rest of the design, and since I don't have a lot of extra room on some of them I may not be able to work it in for all of them).  I had already planned for one of the doormats to say "hello Sunshine", so there's one month..... lol.  I also don't want to put it in multiple months in exactly the same way.  Possibly, say, 2 months both having it as a wall hanging/sign but that it is an entirely different style/design on each one.  Some of the ideas I've come up with so far to incorporate it are:
- on the doormat
- on the door
- wall hanging/plaque
- on a pillow on a bench or chair
- garden flag
Other than the doormat that was already planned anyway I don't know yet which months will have what, or as I said if they even all will have it, but I'm definitely going to put effort into getting it in there as much as possible.  If anyone has any other suggestions feel free to comment/let me know! Can't promise I'll definitely use them in this project, but I'm always up for ideas!

April, which is already done may be one that doesn't end up with a Hello, because right now I'm not sure how I'd incorporate it and I'm not changing anything at this point, but I'm not completely dismissing the idea, depending on how it ends up getting incorporated into all the other months I may end up coming up with something for it and coming back to it later.  I think I have an idea for March's door, but I'm not 100% sure it will work, because it will need to be really tiny..... but I'm going to give it a go and see if I can pull it off, so keep an eye out for my post about the March door in the near future to see if it works out!
