Thanks to the advancements in modern technology, vision boards have received a facelift. Vision boards were originally a DIYer’s dream, using tons of supplies — magazine clippings, photos, glue sticks, glitter, stamps, poster board, and more — to conjure up a master board of manifestations (of sorts). However, the traditional method is officially a way of the past.
Vision boards offer a creative outlet for individuals to exercise and envision their dreams. In fact, by visualizing and placing one’s dreams front and center — from a hair transformation to vacation planning or a move cross country — they feel less out of reach. Ultimately, these dreams become more achievable, no matter how big or small the feat.
Of course, with numerous tools available on the market, those seeking to dive into the practice may feel an influx of buyer’s remorse. Others may not know where to begin based on their goals. Maybe you’re a veteran vision boarder eager to try something new. You could also be a first-timer searching for a simple way to hop on the trend. No matter your position, we’ve compiled a list of top-rated digital vision board tools to aid you in realizing your dreams! Keep scrolling for the details. Let us know in the comment section: What will be on your vision board this year?
