Dear Decorator… Are Mood Boards Really Worth the Effort?

 Dear Abby, I mean Wendy & Lyndsay

I’m a busy working Mom with 3 kids, 2 dogs, and a BIG need to finally have at least 1 room in my
home I really LOVE.

In today's world, it seems like I have to learn something new every week.

Whether it's “new math” with the kids or learning new software at work to keep my career moving
forward… I feel like my brain is full.

I’ve been reading your blog and lurking on your Facebook page… and you keep talking about
the incredible value of Mood Boards, and how they make decorating 10x easier.

Ok - I want it easy!

But I’m still not convinced I have the mental bandwidth to learn another new thing.

Convince me it's worth the time and energy - to learn about and use Mood Boards.

Signed,

Puzzled Paula
