Update on the patio.... it's still in progress... the end. It's just a little frustrating of a project to go into detail on.
As the chilly weather and baby illness keeps up cooped inside, I'm beginning to get a little nutty over our decor plan. My number one problem is that no room in the ENTIRE house is finished. Every room has been started and every room is an ongoing project and every room is driving me nuts :). Forgive my ongoing rant of how I plan to tackle this. I feel like I'm on a diet and I have to tell someone to hold me accountable.
I'm the ultimate clutter collector. I have everything against me. I'm way too sentimental about possesions, I'm a perfectionist so if I can't do something exactly as I see it in my head then I let the fear keep me from even moving and I'm a bargain hunter/impulse buyer. This is all a recipe for major disorganization. So back to the drawing board I go. First, I have to assess what we've completed, what's in progress, and what needs to be done. Then I must re group and get my inspiration flowing again.....Then I must PURGE and maybe actually start a project. Seriously if anyone has tips on finishing a room I would love to hear it.
I recently purchased the Domino Book of Decorating which I love! The steps are so encouraging.
