yes.. it is compelling.. for me I can understand... I was asked to complete a doll house from this kit a lady had started for her daughter and never finished.. it was an involved project the way they had it sold... when I was finished I started making some tiny things for the house..
I couldn't stop.. it was all I could do to pull myself away and go to work.. then I was back making something else.. tables chairs.. a fireplace.. a mantle.. some for other rooms.. it was compulsive to be sure.. and so quick.. then onto a new bit of tiny life.. I had to beg her to remove it.. a bit of wire.. and I had a pot rack for the kitched, a stove.. oh little pots... something about starting a project.. then it was done.. so unlike real life where they go on for hours if not days.. these were over in 20 minutes.. start to finish..
it was like I was living in fast forward.. exhilaration
