That’s us. We circled the box for a week, secretly pleased that we were too busy to tackle it. Waiting for the flat-pack fairy to call by. Nup, didn’t happen. So, how hard could it be??
Well, not very actually – no idea what all the fuss is about. It was up and finished in less than 45 minutes. Not a cross word between us. Not a husband in sight (that may have been the trick). Too easy.

See I’ve been telling everyone for years — ‘to do a job right – get a woman to do it’.

Is that an Expedit bookcase?- Apparently they are a scrapper’s choice as you can fit 12×12 albums in it!! We are off to Ikea tonight to get a unit to sit the new TV on and to select some new Office furniture- we are moving the study to the seldom-used formal lounge and what is currently the study will become my little space. So then the Games room (which is currently my scrap space) can have the old tv and all of Oliver’s toys and stuff!! Love Ikea- no doubt I’ll come home with all sorts of other goodies too!!

Louise: Yep, it’s Expedit, and would be perfect for scrapping. My favourite Ikea gaadget is the apple corer. Use it EVERY day!! What didja buy??
Sonia – Are we clever or what??
