Ciao lovelies! Let’s take a look back at OFT’s 2019!
Specifically the most popular post of each month of 2019, as well as some
reflections I can share about writing each post. At the end I’ll share what my
favorite post was to write this year. And then in the next post (and the first post of 2020!), you’ll find
out my goals, hopes, and ideas for 2020 (and those are not only OFT, but other
life things as well!). But today, let’s recap 2019!
OFT had a great year this year, and it’s all thanks to you
lovelies! Thank you for all your support!
Let’s break down the most popular post of each month this
year!
JANUARY 2019: 5 Super Fun Age Regression Self Care Ideas!
This post was super fun to write and I got to once again
share a very personal side of myself with you all. I really do love writing age
regression content for you all, I just wish I had more ideas for it! I know you
all really love it, too, as shown by how popular age regression content is on
this site. I mean, thousands of our views come from just age regression content
alone. I love being able to provide that content for you lovelies, and you’re
all so supportive of it too! I couldn’t ask for better readers, thank you all!
FEBRUARY 2019: “The Fluff” - Original Story by Nightsong!
I didn’t write this post, but rather asked my bestie
Nightsong if she would let me publish one of her stories to this blog! I love
Nightsong’s writing so I immediately fell in love with her character Cryptid.
He’s just adorable! Plus her art of him is super cute as well! I was so happy
to see that her story was well liked by all of you lovelies as well!
I love making and sharing crafts and craft ideas! Especially
miniatures crafts! As a toy collector and photographer also, I find miniature
crafting to be basically crucial for my life! I especially loved making this
post because it uses materials that many people might have laying around the
house. As a kid, I loved to craft dollhouse miniatures from anything I had
laying around my house, and I guess that carried over into now as well!
This post was the kickoff of our sustainability month for
April! This month was full of amazing interviews, sustainability information,
and lots of good content. I think this is one of my favorite months of content
on OFT of all time, and I will definitely try to pull off another month theme
like this at some point in 2020. I loved having this particular monthly theme
because sustainability is something I’m really passionate about.
Ah yes, the month where I was determined to turn OFT into an
online magazine of sorts and spammed with “listicles”.... I mean, while a list
every now and then is not bad, I was shown somewhat recently how repetitive my
listicles can be. So I’ve recently made an effort to steer away from lists,
unless it’s a well-thought-out and fleshed out list like this.
I didn’t have much time or inspiration to do as many DIY
posts this year, but I did just receive a Cricut Explore Air 2 for Christmas, so I will be able to do more DIY post ideas hopefully
this year!
JULY 2019: What’s the Best Whoopie Pie in Maine?
Oh, I have a lot to say about this one! My mother and I went
on a road trip this summer to Maine, and Mom actually suggested the idea of us
doing a “Whoopie Pie Tour” where we test out many different Whoopie Pies from
different parts of Maine, and then rank them and blog the results. So we did!
It was such a fun trip, not only seeing my family there but also spending time
with my mom and just overall having a blast.
Another super popular age regression post! As I mentioned
earlier, I do love sharing this side of myself with you all, and seeing the
positive reactions and happiness it brings you all is so worth opening myself
up like that.
SEPTEMBER 2019: 10 Little Ways to Add Some Magic to Your Life!
This post is another listicle, but it’s one that I’m pretty
fond of. I also love the header graphic for it, it was one of my first attempts
at making a GIF in Canva, so I love that as well. I actually really love this
post, truly. At the time I made it, I don’t think I was so fond of it, but it’s
really aged well.
Wow, this year a lot of our Age Regression content really
excelled! You all seemed to really love this sort of content, and as I
mentioned earlier, I love making it! At first I was worried about sharing this
kind of content, but you all made it worth it. I am so happy to see this sort
of content succeeding so well! And again, as mentioned earlier, I hope to make
more of it when I get some ideas.
NOVEMBER 2019: What is a “Quaintrelle”?
This post is important to me, because I had been searching
for a term or community with which I fit into for a long time - in regards to
my love of historical inspired fashion and lifestyle! I was so pleased to
discover the term Quaintrelle, it means a lot to me to have this word to
describe these things!
DECEMBER 2019: 8 Fun Prompts for Empty Journal Pages!
This post was super fun to make because I was able to not
only share ideas, but also share snippets from my own personal journal where I
had done the ideas mentioned! I love any chance to not only share ideas but
also provide examples.
MY FAVORITE POST THIS YEAR: How to Become a More Positive Person
This post is my favorite because this is something I feel
everyone needs, including me. I wrote this post mainly for myself, as something
to look back on in times of great negativity. I really do love this post, and I
feel that I did a good job on it. It’s something I’m really proud of.
OFT has gone through many changes last year, but it’s been
so fun and so rewarding. Thank you for all of your continued support and love
through the years, and let’s keep going into next year!
Thanks again for reading, remember to stay awesome, love yourself, and I'll see you in our next post!
