Keeping track of renovation plans without losing your mind

Funny how you think you’ll just “remember” which wall is which, right? I’ve definitely had those moments where I’m staring at a pile of marked-up studs and thinking, “What genius wrote this?” (Spoiler: it was me.) I do like the idea of snapping pics before leaving—sometimes I’ll even record a quick video walkthrough talking to myself about what’s what. Ever try color-coding your markings? It’s not perfect, but at least blue tape means “don’t touch” in my world now. Still, nothing saves you if you drop your phone in a bucket of mud... ask me how I know.
