What do you do with your "little word"??

I've never done OLW before but I'm finding myself really drawn to the concept. I think I want to do "become"... sort of inspiration to be things I want to be rather than feeling like I'm stuck being something I don't want to be... I want 2015 to be a year of lots of change and growing so, yeah. I guess I have a word!

My question is what do you do with your word now that I have one LOL! I was thinking about making some art for my wall, but what are some other things you all do?
 
Well I used mine to also find verses to hold on to through the year. I also used it for the basis/theme for the majority of my art journaling/about me pages.

Funnily enough, my church's theme for next year is hope (my OLW for this year) and their primary verse for it is the same I used. lol
 
I don't really scrap mine or anything, but I make sure my word is visible. One year I made a mouse pad with my word. Another year I bought a set of metal letters that spelled out my word and put them up on a shelf. I found a neat decoration that said Simplify the year that I used that word. I have a round chalkboard (made from the seat of a stool) hanging on my office door and I put up some sort of phrase or something with my word on there so that I see it every single day. For the past two years I make my word my facebook cover too. I usually do it scrapbook style to make it all pretty. I see it every time I check my facebook profile. I've thought of getting a piece of jewelry with my word too but haven't done that yet. I just make sure that I am always aware of my word. One year I wrote it on the mirror with dry erase markers.
 
I purchased a necklace from this Etsy seller with my word on it:
Chip and Chisel

I liked being able to 'take it with me' and have a physical touchpoint to remind myself of my word when things were off track.
 
This is a great idea gals. In the past I've scrapped it and then well....forgot about it.

But now that the 3 of us are using the SAME one little word, I might make something that we can all see to put up in a common area (like the living room & kitchen). Bet I could find some ideas on pinterest! :)
 
I take Ali's class (which I love) and usually get a piece of jewelry...for 2015 I bought a necklace with my word on it.
