Alright, babe, let’s talk about manifestation—aka turning your Pinterest board dreams into reality. Vision boards are all the rage for a reason: they help you focus, stay inspired, and keep your eye on the prize (or the private jet). But let me be clear—this isn’t just about slapping pictures of a G-Wagon and Bora Bora on a poster and waiting for the universe to hand them to you.
No, bestie, this is about setting the tone for your year, aligning with what you truly want, and putting in some effort. Let’s dive into how to create a vision board that’s cute, effective, and as extra as you are.
Step 1: Know What You Want (and Be Honest About It)
Before you start cutting out Vogue covers, take a minute. What are you actually trying to manifest? And no, “a rich boyfriend” doesn’t count unless you’re also manifesting your own glow-up.
Break it down:
- Career goals? Dream job?
- Love life? (Or just texting your ex less… let’s be realistic.)
- Personal growth? (Like reading one book a month… but start with one every two months.)
The clearer you are, the easier it is to visualize. No fluff, no pretending you want to meditate every morning if you know you’d rather sleep in.
Step 2: Find Your Aesthetic
Now comes the fun part. It’s time to curate your vibe. Open Pinterest, flip through magazines, or stalk Instagram for pictures, quotes, and energy that scream you in 2025.
A few ideas:
- A luxury apartment = that “main character energy” glow-up.
- A photo of Santorini = your dream vacay (no Airbnbs with shared bathrooms, though).
- A quote like “I’m the drama, but I’m also the solution” = your mantra for the year.
Basically, find the stuff that makes your inner goddess scream, “Yes, that’s me!”
Step 3: Choose Your Medium
Your vision board should fit your personality. No two vibes are the same, and that’s okay. Here are your options:
- Classic Collage: Grab scissors, glue, and poster board. It’s giving middle school, but in a good way.
- Digital Queen: Canva is free and makes for a killer phone wallpaper. Plus, no mess.
- Bullet Journal Baddie: Use your journal if you’re feeling artsy—or just if you love an excuse to buy more stationery.
Step 4: Slap It Together Like You Mean It
Once you’ve got your materials, it’s time to create the magic. Place your images and quotes in a way that feels intentional—balance the luxury with the achievable (read: Beyoncé and a few paid-off credit cards). And remember, it doesn’t have to look like an influencer’s dream board. This is your masterpiece, baby.
Oh, and don’t overthink it—manifestation doesn’t care if your tape job is a little wonky.
Step 5: Don’t Just Dream It, Do It
Listen, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but your vision board isn’t a genie lamp. You can’t just pin a Chanel bag and expect it to show up next week.
Manifestation works when you take inspired action. Want to run a 10K? Put on those sneakers. Manifesting a promotion? Update that LinkedIn. Dreaming of inner peace? Start small, like saying “no” when Karen asks you to work overtime.
It’s about aligning your energy with what you want—and then actually working for it.
Step 6: Keep It Front and Center
Your vision board isn’t some deep, dark secret. Put it where you’ll see it every day: above your desk, in your closet, or as your phone background. Let it remind you of what you’re chasing—because honestly, you deserve nothing less.
Final Thoughts: Dream Big, Babe
Vision boards aren’t magic, but they are powerful. They’re a reminder of what you’re capable of, what you deserve, and where you’re going. So don’t hold back—dream big, be bold, and let 2025 be the year you truly show up for yourself.
