buck - et list: a number of experiences or achievements that a person hopes to have or accomplish during their lifetime.
Ok, so now that we have clarified the true definition of a bucket list, I assume if you choose to put one together ,you will pick the most exciting and outgoing things. Please do NOT be one of those people that writes things such as: Keep the house clean... or work on the car...
Let me be perfectly clear when I tell you: THOSE THINGS ARE A TO DO LIST! Totally against the true exciting nature of the sacred Bucket List. Bucket List's are made to get you out of your comfort zone; to try NEW experiences! So please keep that in mind when you sit down to write yours out.
There are many ways to compile your List aside from your average pen to paper. Shown Below.

Compiling a bucket list can be so much more creative than that! Life's too short to settle for mundane, lets kick it up a notch!
Check this out! A Bucket List Jar! This is what I mean! Something different that makes the whole point of it even more fun! Simply pick out a jar of your liking, fill with sand, and gather up a hand full of rocks and write down each goal on each individual stone. Whenever your goal has been accomplished, place it in the jar! Just watching the jar slowly fill up is excitement in itself!

This is also a great idea! It's not as decorative as the one above but much more effective. Whenever you have completed one of your goals then drop the clothes pin in the can! Very simple but very fun!
Next is another simple yet effective way to keep track of your amazing list before you kick the bucket! With 2 simple decorated jars, one filled with things to do, the other filled with things you have done!
I saved my favorite for last! Why not make your bucket list into a wall hanging where everyone can admire your dreams!? Whoever came up with this idea needs to be given the Bucket List Nobel Prize!
Purchase a cheap frame from your local Dollar Store (or any store you prefer.. I mean what store doesn't sell picture frames? There pretty much everywhere!) The picture shown below is just a simple painted frame but you could really jazz this up with maybe some burlap flowers or crocheted doilies (whatever fits your taste)!
Then, find some chicken wire to staple to the back of your frame. For those of you who don't buy chicken wire on a regular bases, you can purchase this at most Atwood's or your local farmers co-op (to those not living in the city).
Get yourself a little bucket to wire or hot glue to the chicken wire and/or frame and clothespin your list to the wire.
There really is no wrong way to do this! So get creative with it!
