I've built my bookshelf and nightstand. Now I should say I've been living here for two months, and have had these items for that long, or close to it. I have been putting off putting thing things together because I knew it would frustrate me. I was right.
I started with the bookshelf, and it was more complicate than I thought it would be. I started off wrong. The first pieces I put together backwards. Oops. So when I went to connect two pieces they didn't line up right. So, at this point it was do I force it together and make it work, or take it apart and do it right? Well, I took it apart, put it back together, found another piece wrong, so I took it apart and put it back together. In the end it is together correctly, with no extra pieces! If I ever need another deterrent for buying books, I'll just put together a bookshelf!
The nightstand was easy. Yay ikea!
All in all, I'm glad it's done.
Tomorrow, I clean my room and organize my closet...or at least that is the plan!
When I do I'll post pictures of my handy work!

Hi Lori!
ReplyDeleteI think that this is so much better than New Years Resolutions.
I love all the things on your list! They're the things you think about doing but never end up doing because they're so simple - well some of them anyway.
Good luck with the rest of the list, I think you are off to an awesome start. I'll be rooting for ya!
xoxo
