The weekly 4bw posts are back after the long break
– here’s the 4bw number 43 for everyone to read
– ready to see what’s suggested for this week? ![]()
- Throw a costume party – … Even if it’s not halloween! Ok, this might need a little bit more than a day’s planning, but the result will definitely be worth it!
also, most of the time there’s no need to buy a store-made costume
Just a little bit of imagination & you probably would be able to assemble your DIY costume right from your very own wardrobe 
- Send out a fan letter to someone you really admire - Why not show your appreciation to your role model? It can be you favourite athlete, environmentalist, model, singer … or even your favourite blogger

- Make a new layout - Got a website or a social media profile? Are you able to change your very own layout design? Then do so today
! A new layout design always motivates me to keep updated
… For those who wish for a change but don’t know what to do – here’s some little Inspiration Ideas post i had done 2 years back
If you don’t know how to create the layout yourself, there are always many free websites today which offer free layouts and designs (make sure you credit them!) … or better yet – it’s a great opportunity to start learning
! Get yourself on google and start searching for easy tutorials – you’re bound to find the perfect article! - Write a Short Story – Sit down, grab a pen, think a little, start writing! You may be surprised at the result
It’s a great way to keep your mind & imagination active
Don’t know what to write about? Here are some ideas: write about funny situations you’ve encountered lately, extend a well known fairy tale or give it an alternative twist, write about your grandma’s childhood memories, or write about the trouble your pet gets into
!
The following idea was suggested by AnneMarie (Arigatou Gozaimasu!)
- Call someone you haven’t talked to in awhile. You know, talk it up with some old friends. Tell them hello, and make em smile or something. It’s always nice to hear from an old buddy.
Got any suggestions of your own to be included for the next 4BW (same time, next week!)? I would love to hear from you!! Each idea of course will be credited! Send your brightest most glittering ideas through the usual contact form! ![]()
Till next time! ![]()

These are great ideas honey – especially the one about the costume party – i love costume parties – sometimes I just pick a theme and create a costume for fun – and then take lots of pictures!!!

Those are some cool ideas
I kinda wanna mix up two of them, and send a letter to my friend in Sweden. She moved, but it would be too long distance to call so I might just write a letter.
And haha, I DO THE SAME THING. I always give hints to people, because I’m terrible at keeping in surprises unless I HAVE TO. If it’s someone elses surprise I won’t ruin it, but for my own.. I always give away hints :P

Awhh… I really do want to make a new layout, and I have loads of inspiration, but nothing turns out looking good enough.
I think I pose too high an expectation on myself.
Too much work.. too many things to do!
Hmm.. now youve mentioned short story.. I really fancy writing a poem… but I havent got any time!
Heh, I seeing 30STM in London… Its gonna be so cooooool! You should come back over to London to see them! :P If there are tickets left anyways..!

Hey! Thanks for the comment. Just returning the favour =]
Those are some really neat ideas. I’ve downloaded a layout for my blog because I never have time to make my own anymore and this one looks fabby. I just have to wait til tomorrow after work to start editing it.
I like the idea of writing a letter. I used to write loads of letters to my best friend who lives at the other end of the country but then when the internet appeared we stopped writing so much and spoke on msn. Now we tend to text and chat via facebook. I’d phone her up too but she doesn’t like to talk on the phone.
