Keeping Focused

Anyone else get distracted easily when designing a room?!!  I'm pretty sure I have it all together and then I get out to the stores and bammm, there I am walking out of Home Goods with a red ceramic elephant that has nothing to do with where I was going in the first place!!!  I mean Home Goods is one of the best stores on the planet,  but again, I'm easily distracted.

So when I'm working on a big project, like this new house, I have found putting together a design board works wonders and keeps me focused.  Ya, sometimes I feel ridiculous walking around with it, but it saves me time & money (2 things I am fond of) when I'm out wandering.

I'm still pretty busy giving all the rooms a fresh coat of paint and Kurt has been busy laying the wood floors when he can.  This house seems to be taking us the longest to get done, not because it's hard, it's just hard to find the time.  The plan this weekend is to get a majority of it finished....floors, new base trim and painting....so we can at least start moving.  

Then the fun begins, the actual decorating!!!!
