Hi everyone, you may have noticed updates to our name and website recently - We’ve been dopamine dressing more than just décor lately… So we’ve changed from DopaDécor to DopaDream! This helps to encompass everything we do. We’re excited for the new ventures ahead and appreciate all the love and support ❤

Hi! I’m Jana-Marie (and that’s my beautiful doggie, Honey). I’m currently creating this website from hospital during a rough patch in my life - where I’m struggling with my mental and physical health.

I recently discovered I’ve been unintentionally “dopamine dressing” and “dopamine decorating” - and it makes so much sense, because all I want is: to feel better and happier.

I noticed I moved from wearing/decorating with “safe” plain colours to brighter colours. My clothes, hospital room and home have become more and more colourful - full of rainbows, sparkles, patterns and fun textures. I was doing this simply because “I like it and it makes me feel joy”. However, I’ve noticed others around me appreciate it and it seems to brighten their day too.

I learnt about the science behind dopamine dressing and realised it’s a real thing, and I’ve been doing it- not just with my clothes and accessories but my decor too.

I’m so drawn to the concept of dopamine dressing and decorating that I’ve started this website, and DopaDécor, as a project to keep me busy while in hospital. However, I mainly started this in the hope of spreading some happiness to others.
