Vision board girls trips, this time there are witnesses

’This is my year’ gets said every January and at least once after a second glass, and it’s meant every single time. Magazines, scissors, glue and a board each, with the girls weighing in on every bit of it, and somewhere to stay for all of you.

Why the girls keep picking a vision board weekend

Manifesting is a team sport.

Every January starts with the same two resolutions: drink more water and see the girls more. By autumn, only the water’s still happening.

A vision board weekend is the one that finally gets ticked off. Magazines open on every surface, the dream holiday cut out and stuck down, and somewhere between the glue and the scissors the talk drifts into the things people only say out loud around old friends.

These are the women who knew your plans back when they were wild, and they’re still the best people to say them in front of. They remember every plan you’ve ever announced, which is either lovely or slightly threatening.

Whatever ends up on yours, the group will be holding you to it.

What happens on a vision board girls weekend

Big plans by day, bubbly by night.

A vision board girls trip with My Ultimate is a workshop at your apartment with your own artist host and everything you need, built into a whole girls weekend with somewhere to stay, food and drinks.

The coffee table disappears.
Your artist host arrives with the good stuff: stacks of magazines, scissors, glue and a board for each of you. In Brisbane there are background papers and embellishments too, and the aprons go straight on over the outfits.
Holidays first, then a dog or two.
Dream holidays get debated and future kitchens approved by committee. Somebody’s board is mostly golden retrievers, and nobody’s surprised. Every so often a picture gets held up and the room says ’yes’ at once.
Cheese or crackers first? Both.
In Sydney a grazing box lands at the apartment door just as everyone has found a spot on the floor. It stays beautifully arranged for about four minutes.
Then the night heads out.
Dinner under the neon and a bottle of bubbly in a garden bar with a giant pink flamingo in Brisbane. In Sydney, head out in the outfit you just glued onto your board, or stay in with the rest of the grazing.
Read out loud, cheered line by line.
In Sydney, late in the night, someone reads her whole board out loud, and the room cheers every line as if it’s already done. By morning somebody has started a group chat for the holiday on hers. Of course she has.

What kind of girls group a vision board suits

Every plan you have ever announced.

It works for the friend with a plan for everything, and for the one who’s going to open a little bookshop one day.

Three friends hugging and laughing with a drink in hand

The ones who want to make something.

Scissors, glue and no talent required. Nobody’s board is shy.

A new chapter.

A new job, a new city, a new decade. The board goes up where everyone can see it.

The group that keeps saying ’one day’.

This time it’s in writing, and there are witnesses.

Every age at the table.

From the twenty somethings to the friends who’ve been to every birthday since school.

A milestone birthday.

The next ten years, planned with the girls who were there for the last ten.

Friends who live far apart.

Different postcodes, same board energy. Everyone takes a piece of the weekend home.

What pairs well with a vision board

The rest of the weekend, sorted around the board.

Every vision board weekend already works on its own. These are the things that sit beautifully beside it, and a few of them can be added to the weekends above.

Tarot readings

Your board, then the cards’ opinion on it. An extra on both weekends.

Grazing at the apartment

Fuel for the cutting and sticking. Already in the Sydney weekend, and an extra on the Brisbane one.

A girls night in

In Sydney the night can stay in, boards propped up where everyone can see them.

A rooftop

Big plans, up high. A rooftop dinner is an extra on the Sydney weekend.

Brunch the morning after

Mimosas and the first goal ticked off. An extra on the Sydney weekend.

High tea

Tiered stands and a very civilised planning meeting. An extra on the Brisbane weekend.

A VIP nightclub booth

First goal on the board: the dance floor. An extra on both weekends.

Paint and sip

A canvas instead of a board. Its own weekend in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.

Terrarium making

A tiny garden to go with the big plans. Its own weekend in Melbourne, Brisbane and on the Gold Coast.

Candle making

Light it every time you look at the board. Its own weekend in Sydney and on the Gold Coast.

Good to know before your vision board workshop

The small things the girls will ask about.

What to bring

Nothing. Your host brings the magazines, scissors, glue and a board for everyone.

What to wear

Comfortable enough for the floor. In Brisbane the aprons go on over the outfits.

Getting it home

Everyone takes her finished board home. Expect it to be propped against the wall for a group photo first.

Photos

Somebody will want the boards-up shot. What goes on socials is the group’s call.

A vision board night, or a whole girls weekend

Same board, a very different weekend.

Plenty of groups have a crafty night in with a pile of old magazines. Then half the glue sticks are dry, somebody has to leave early, and the big plans stay half stuck to the board.

A vision board girls weekend with My Ultimate has the host, the materials, the apartment, the food and the night already lined up, so the boards get finished, read out loud and cheered by everyone in the room.

Somewhere to stay, already in it.One living room for the workshop, the getting ready and the morning coffee.

One front door at the end of the night.Everyone heads home to the same place, boards included.
