Choose an item of clothing that you love.
You might associate it with a memory or feeling.
It might have been gifted to you by someone you love.
It might be textured, it might be warm, it might be vintage.
It might remind you of places you’ve been or a childhood memory. 
 
Create or share a story about that item of clothing.
Perhaps it will inspire how you choose what to wear today!
 
Welsh Translation: 
Dewis atgof o'th blentyndod yn ymwneud â dillad, a rhanna'r stori mewn geiriau neu farddoniaeth. 
 
Dewis beth i'w wisgo heddiw ar sail yr atgof hwnnw.

A note from 64 Million Artists: 
 
There is no wrong or right way to take part in The January Challenge. People take part in all sorts of ways! Here are some examples: 
  • Sharing the challenges with your community group or workplace  and creating responses together
  • Creating a WhatsApp group with friends or family to share responses
  • Sharing responses on social media in our friendly Facebook Group, or on Twitter and Instagram with the hashtag #TheJanuaryChallenge
  • Individually, keeping responses to yourself 
Anything goes. 
 
There is no pressure to complete the challenge everyday of the month, if simply reading the prompt brings new thoughts each day, or you create a physical response 31 days of the month, we encourage you to take part in a way that works best for you!

 
See you tomorrow,
