This is just a quick post to say blogging this week may be a little sporadic as real life gets in the way. It's nearing midnight as I draft this post and I'm still in the midst of clearing away the debris of a weekend building furniture for my bedroom.
Of course as always things take twice as long as you expect. I've been hindered by the need of a drill for my dressing table mirror and a faulty piece in my third chest of drawers so tomorrow will be spent on the phone to IKEA to sort that out.
I still need to find a bed, order a console table and another bedside unit and my kitchen looks like a bomb site as I've slacked on washing up duties.
Whilst I can proudly announce I managed to put together a lot of the furniture myself I also have to say thank you to Ben who assisted with the wardrobe and the second set of drawers as my enthusiasm was wanning.
For now I need to return my flat into some sort of order so that I can get myself to work in a presentable state tomorrow, the washing up can wait for another night.
Check you out doing it yourself!!! I wouldnt have a clue - its looking good - cant wait to see it finished xxx
ReplyDeleteI don't know if I had a clue to start with but once I could make sense of the instructions I was away!
DeleteImpressed that you did most of this yourself! I'm just horrible with stuff like this!

DeleteI am bowing down to you for doing any of that crazy putting it together furniture!! lol It looks great and when you are done will be beautiful. Grace
ReplyDeleteI have to say it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, just boring and I could've done with an electric screwdriver!
DeleteWell done for putting it together! It all looks so lovely and I can't wait for the big reveal.
