So, all that repurposing and using what we have brou-ha-ha? Well, there was a reason I put all that stuff in little boxes, wasn't there? Granted, some of it's staying out, but most of it is being packed right back up and put in the storage room...
...of which we now only have ONE! YAY! And you probably thought I hadn't been talking about Casa Didgeridoo's overhaul because of not accomplishing anything. It didn't go as I thought it would - the process was to have been zippy and gut-based and otherwise finished the hell up by now. But I'm down to one more tiny area of things sorted to clean off, and then it's time to load up the storage room. Next week I'll be making a Goodwill run (as well as having them come here to get a hulking oddity of ugliness I thought I would be able to turn into a hutch - HA). Sometime between now and the 10th of September, the house will be "flipped" - - - which means movers are coming to rearrange furniture.
And all of this means I really can settle into the fun part: Finalizing all my decisions pertaining to colors and fabrics and motifs and whatnot. I know where I want everything to go, now I get to figure out how I want it to look. What I thought I wanted at the beginning of this - - too "easy". "Making do" isn't my game - although I love glittery skulls and decorating with toys, I do require some level of polish and sophistication. Standards - I have them. (Quit acting like you're going to faint.) The trick now is figuring out the best way to bring those seemingly disparate directions together into something that we'll be happy with. I also have to figure out how best to bolt down the furniture and install safety features - Didgeridoo Boy is a rambunctious soul, after all.
And all of this also means I get to spend a few days "discussing" the color of the kitchen. I know what I want. Didge knows what I want. How do I help Didge want what I want?
I'll leave you with that thought - as I've just realized I have a lot of strategizing to take care of.
