8 screws

6 boards

8 pins

wind, wind, wind, wind

push, push, push push

push, push, push, push

shelves stacked

and now book, book, book

Why did it take so long

to buy a book shelf, and clear these

stacks off the floor?

That’s funny. We spent much of this weekend reorganizing my writing room. Same kinda deal.

  It is, because it’s for my writing space, all my writing books (and I found TWO library books! Luckily they were from the school library where I am librarian, so no fines…) 😉

I think that if you’d got one earlier it would have been smaller, and you would have to be getting another one now. That would be two to put together !

  lol It’s just a little 3′ high one, and it’s cleared so much space! I am only using half of the shelf space, so…

I sometimes used to struggle with such projects. Written instructions do help- and then, there’s always YouTube. 🙂

  It’s never an issue doing, once it’s begun. I have studied the book shelf aisle and Canadian Tire a dozen times before I finally just spent the $26 for a new book shelf! It took about 15 mins to put together when I got it home.
