Just so you know. Those pervs.
Anywho,
As I was standing in my Dad's workshop (a.k.a., the garage), I did my usual tactless, shameless thing I do where I stare at everything in there, ask what he's going to do with it, and occasionally if I can have it. (Was I born in a barn??)
My dad asked if I wanted these leftover pieces. Yes, he asked me. This time.
Don'tmindifIdo!
What were these left over from, Dad?
Well, that was months ago, my peeps.
Then this weekend, in a much loved trip to the Hob Lob (you know I could spend my life there), I found these on clearance.
And I thought to myself, "Self, these could be a very interesting sign. Maybe for the laundry room. Hmm. . . ?"
So I began to assemble.
Hmm, one letter of each. That's it. Although a "p" could be a "d". . . let's get creative here. . .
My first thought.
Hmm.
Hmm?
Yo.
Word.
'Mm, no. I don't want to be reminded I suck on a daily basis.
Maybe.
Maybe.
Eh. Maybe.
Hmm?
Nah.
Yeah. Yeah!
With a little help from my BFF's, mr. wood glue & mr. spray paint, this could be totally awesome/craptacular. I'll show you when I figure out just how to hang it.

that is cool. I like it. I love that you can see letters and a bunch of wood and make something out of it.
Almost bought those exact letters this past week. Maybe I should go back and get 'em and find me some scrap wood. Can't wait to see what you do. (You had to be a comedy writer in a former life; just hysterical :)
My vote is - it will be awesome.
Your brain just works in a different way than the rest of us (in a very good way).
Mandi,
You are so creative and very talented. I love all your sweet pictures you take, amazing. What kind of camera do you have?

ha ha. I could use a couple of those.
Holy crap - I was thinking "wash - dry - fold", and then I got to the final pic. Can't wait to see it!
This may, in fact, be a result of the fact that I frequently remember to do ONE of these steps, but rarely all three in sequence. Maybe I need some reminding. Maybe.
You. are. brilliant. true story
WOW your vision inspires me!!
You crack me up:) Love the sign...cant wait for more pics!

mine laundry room sign says, well,
saille de lessive (please excuse the spelling - i have no idea how to spell it - but i bet you do!)
My vote is wash dry fold! So cute and an awesome reminder to keep it moving through process. I would have to add, put away (that's where I fail)

Talk about leaving us hanging... so rude! Just kidding. I can't wait to see it now.
I'll be waiting.

I think I need a sign in my laundry room. I don't know something like .... SAVE ME, or I know..I know... HELP WANTED! Yeah I like that!=)
Ok, wheres the reveal? I want to see it in the laundry! Thanks for the comments on my room. I thought since laundry sucks, I could at least be in a happy place when I do something shitty! Pardon my French!
Come on who loves laundry?
I vote Clean Moi
I just found your blog and have spent the better part of the morning giggling as I read thru your recent posts! Thanks for the laughs and the inspiration. I LOVE this project!
