This wonderful wish fulfillment tool has many names - wish collage, vision board, wish map, treasure map, wish album - but I personally prefer the dream collage . Because a Dream is something high and grandiose, but desires can be mundane and small. And whatever you call the yacht, that’s how it will float...
But that's not the point. The main thing is that this method of fulfilling desires and making dreams come true is incredibly effective. Its realizing power has long been tested by millions. And achieving the materialization of your goals without using this miracle remedy is an unforgivable mistake. Dream collage is a super-powerful accelerator for the fulfillment of desires of all times! No more and no less.
The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams
The very principle of a dream collage is very simple - you just need to place on any surface images of what represents the fulfillment of your dream. And very soon you will see how your wishes will begin to come true one after another, as if by magic!
It's all about the Law of Attraction of Thoughts, which says: “like attracts like.” By regularly looking at images, we launch a powerful mechanism to attract what we want into our lives. We concentrate mental energy on the dream object and direct it in the right direction.
When we look at a collage, we dream intentionally
, connecting to this process the creative power of visualization. Woven from the energy of our thoughts and thought forms, the desired objects of our dreams take shape first in the Subtle World, where they are as real as everything on Earth, and then in the physical world, where they only need some time to materialize.
But this is all, as they say, theory and it’s time for us to move on to practice.
Vision board for yourself and loved ones
A tangible collage of desires is a selection of pictures with meaningful goals. Psychologists say that such clear visualization provides powerful motivation to do everything in your power to achieve your plans.
There are several types of wish collages:
- Individual
– takes into account the interests and goals in the life of one person; - Family
– accommodates the common aspirations and desires of all family members; - Thematic
- reflects desires related to a specific area - business, health, travel plans, etc.
Conventionally, such collages can be divided into “annual” collages, those that visualize plans for the near future, and collages with uncertain deadlines.
This kind of work can also be used as a creative birthday collage, replacing a holiday card.
A collage of wishes can be made for the whole family
A similar collage can also be used as a creative alternative to a card with wishes for a loved one’s holiday.

When should you not make a treasure map?
You cannot create a map during eclipses!
A person who has not delved into the teachings of Feng Shui can create a visualization map any day when he has such a desire. The main thing is that you sincerely and strongly wanted to work on it, had several free hours and no one distracted you.
Selecting the right pictures
You have learned how to make a wish collage effective. Now let's look at recommendations for choosing the images to use.
Health sector
A portrait of the author of the collage should be placed here. Choose a photo in which you radiate happiness, youth and health. You can add elements from other photographs or magazine illustrations to the portrait, for example, choosing a beautiful hairstyle with shiny thick hair or an athletic figure.
Find a photo of you looking healthy and happy
Wealth sector
Here you need to place any pictures or photographs with luxury items: expensive cars, dazzling jewelry, houses on the sea coast, wads of money. It would be a good idea to additionally use a real banknote to attract wealth.
A luxury mansion is a great idea!
Career sector
This part of the collage is responsible for success in your dream job, prospects for promotion, and good luck in doing business. It is worth choosing images that relate to the position you want to take or the field of activity you want to dive into. Graphs and upward arrows are symbols that enhance the effect. Add strong phrases to your signature: “I am a successful manager,” “I am a creative art director.”
The photo should be a success
Family sector
Think about what you mean by an ideal family and try to embody it in the selected pictures. Usually photos of happy people, joyful smiles and hugs are posted here. Main accents: love, tenderness, care. In your signature you should add a list of traits that you would like to see in a partner.
A happy, loving family is the best choice for this sector
Let's start filling out
It’s best to start with the design of the central part – your personal sector. And then fill in all the rest sequentially. Before gluing photos and writing wishes, you should color the card in the specified colors in advance.
Sector No. 1. You and your body
Energy color: white, beige, yellow.
Sector You and your body
In the center of the wish card, they traditionally place their favorite photo or one that reminds them of happy moments. Pictures related to desires regarding the body and health are also written and placed here:
- A snow-white smile, if you dream of getting crowns or veneers, or correcting your bite;
- Slim body if you want to lose weight;
- Items that symbolize health for you if you are sick and dream of getting well.
Sector No. 2. Wealth
Color: purple or green.
Sector Wealth
It contains the entire material side of your life. And here it is worth writing desires, the fulfillment of which only lack of finances holds you back:

- Repair;
- New clothes or accessories.
Sector No. 3. Self-realization and fame
Color: red.
Sector Self-realization and glory
This column contains the most ambitious desires. For example, you can write here:
- Promotion on the career ladder;
- World famous;
- Recruitment of 1 million subscribers on social networks;
- The release of your first book or a successful performance on stage.

Sector No. 4. Love and marriage
Color: pink, red, terracotta.
Sector Love and Marriage
The most common desires in this area are the desire to meet your soulmate, attract the attention of the person you like, or the desire to return passion to the relationship. Every family has its own problems - and you probably have an idea of how they can be solved. Write it down.
Sector No. 5. Family
Color: green, brown or blue.
Sector Family
It is no coincidence that this column is separated from the previous one. It denotes not only the relationship with the spouse, but also the connection with the parents. Each person builds them differently. Some people just can’t make peace and establish warm contact, while others dream of giving mom and dad an expensive gift. What is important to you? Write in this sector.
Sector No. 6. Children and creativity
Color: white, grey, gold or silver.
Sector Children and creativity
People tend to transfer their own unfulfilled dreams onto their children. We diligently take care of their development and every victory of a child is our great joy. In this sector you can place desires such as pregnancy, high achievements of children in school and in competitions.
Don't forget about self-realization. If you have long dreamed of learning to knit or play the piano, record a song or master decoupage, feel free to write in this section.
Sector No. 7. Knowledge
Color: yellow, orange, brown.
Knowledge Sector
If in Soviet times it was possible to get a diploma and spend your whole life in one job, now knowledge plays a key role. New technologies force you to study and improve your skills, and sometimes you even have to change your profession. In this column you can write down the following desires:
- Learn English;
- Learn a new profession that allows you to work remotely;
- Get access to new types of services in your profession and much more.
The main thing is to make sure that this is your desire. After all, now every second person dreams of learning a foreign language, but in reality only a few need it.
Sector No. 8. Career
Color: blue, blue.
Sector Career
Perhaps you have stayed too long in one position or even want to leave for a better-paid job or open your own business. It is possible that you are satisfied with everything anyway. Carefully analyze and write down your aspirations in this sector.
Sector No. 9. Trips
Color: gold, silver, beige.
Travel sector
It’s a rare person who doesn’t dream of visiting distant countries or relaxing by the sea. But it is possible that your goal is much closer - for example, it could be a picnic in the nearest forest with your family or a trip to a museum. Write it down and be sure to choose a picture that best reflects your dream.
The best time to make a wish collage
Ideally, if you manage to make a collage of wishes during the period:
- 1-5 lunar day, waxing moon;
- During the month before and after your birthday;
- Lunar day that falls on a birthday;
- During all New Year's holidays;
- Religious holidays of your religion.
Please keep in mind that the above are guidelines only. If you have a thirst for creativity, don't hold back! This moment will be the most successful.
The principles for creating a “magic” collage are clear - you need clearly formulated plans and their vivid photographic embodiments. Of course, you can make a wish collage the old-fashioned way, armed with whatman paper, scissors, glue and cutouts. However, it is much faster and more interesting to design it in a special editor directly on your PC.
In the PhotoCOLLAGE program you will create an effective visualization without having to bother with office supplies. This will make it easier for you to find a suitable picture - download the image you like and add it to the project. There is no need to cut or print anything. Below we will look at an example of how to correctly make a collage of wishes using this software in 5 steps.
How to make a wish map: tools and materials
Of course, you can write down your wishes on a regular piece of paper. Even pasting pictures will not be a problem. But it is important to take into account the fact that the card works for about 1-3 years. In addition, you have to periodically adjust it:
- Give thanks and celebrate dreams that have come true;
- Remove from it those desires that have lost relevance for you;
- Add something new.
Therefore, it is worth considering using durable materials that will not lose their appearance over a long period of use and will allow you to periodically make adjustments. Some good options might be:
- Lamination. You can seal the finished card in durable plastic at your nearest printing house. And then it will definitely serve you for a long time, and then it will also be preserved as a memory of wishes that have come true. The disadvantage of this option is the lack of adjustment options;
- Thick cardboard. Not as durable as lamination, but also quite capable of surviving up to three years, even if you pick up the card every day. A significant advantage is that it leaves the opportunity to supplement and correct written desires;
- Cork board. You can buy it at an office supply store or make it yourself by purchasing a backing made from this material at a construction market. It is stored for a long time, allowing for periodic adjustments. Disadvantage: it is quite expensive and capacious, it will be more difficult to hide it from prying eyes;
- Photoshop. An excellent option that allows you not only to insert the desired inscriptions and pictures, but also to visualize yourself against the backdrop of landmarks of the world or while driving a car. Having collected a wish card in Photoshop, you can always place it on your computer desktop or print it - and it will always be before your eyes. The disadvantage of this option is the need for basic skills in working with the program;
- Paint, Krita and others – you can also find graphic editors that are easier to manage on the Internet. You can use any of them;
- Graphic services Canva, WishMap and others. They provide ready-made templates, and all you have to do is place pictures and inscriptions in them.
It’s also worth thinking about drawings, pictures, and design. The easiest option is to select all the necessary images on the Internet, print and cut them out. But you can go a more complicated route - draw by hand. Perhaps in cartoon form. If such work brings you pleasure, then the wish map will inspire and delight you every day.
