Design ADD

On any given day around here, I have a gazillion things to do.  The normal work of the H.E. (household executive) and mother, and then design work, and then the DIY jobs.

But I have a hard time committing all my focus and energy on getting any projects in those later 2 categories done. Not only because my mothering and household jobs suffer if I devote 100% of my day's energy to any design or DIY project, but because I also think I have a specific type of ADD called Design or Project ADD. Therefore several things I'm working on are in various stages of completion, and even though I should be spending ALL my time finishing up my laundry room, or touch up painting 1 of several rooms downstairs, I will do this while right in the middle of said laundry room project.

Before:

This is the garage fridge.  I AM currently working on the laundry room, and I had some left over polka dots from that job, and they made me so giddy when I was applying them in there that I had to put the 15 or so I had left SOMEWHERE!  So voila!


I got these from  Urban Walls on Etsy.  They are so happy. It's really the silliest thing.

All these D.A.D.D. (Design ADD) jobs may may cause delays in my 100% completion of the laundry room.......... the happiness and lightness it adds to my otherwise purely functional and honestly, partly ugly garage is worth it.

  2. Love it! I put some black chalkboard flowers on my fridge and like the little pops it brings. But your gold dots are fabulous.
