I seem to be in good company...

I saw recently that Donna Downey's redesigned studio has a very familiar colour scheme, not to mention the white furniture and red accents... hm... so I am not alone in my love of aqua and red.

Anyway, things are still kind of chaotic, this is how the bedroom was looking Saturday when about to build the Hemnes chest - you need a fair amount of space to do that in!

Yes, the bed is still a "shelf" for holding random bits of flat pack.

My little Tupperware IKEA boxes had their first outing... as screw sorters as there sure are a lot of screws for the Hemnes chest:

And sadly, due to the Rugby, I never did finish putting the drawers together for the chest over the weekend, at the moment it looks like this:

I just love it and it looks so great in the room already, even without drawers!

I tell you, it was so exciting to finally see it where it's going to be located.

:happy sigh:

Hopefully this Saturday I will finish putting the drawers together and get the other bedside table made so that we can get everything positioned so the mirror can be put up then my red Next frame, still need to plan what decorative elements I shall be putting in it. Hm.

In the meantime I seem to be in a retro music mood - I am sure I keep hearing Tina Arena's version of "I want to know what love is" on the radio all the time of late, and I have her 1998 In Deep Album back from my student days, so I've just ripped that to my PC and don't seem to have forgotten the lyrics on many of those tracks!

Also last week, Pink Martini's new album, Splendour in the Grass, arrived from Amazon. I think I need to get used to this one a bit as there are some tracks I absolutely love, but some that will need some work - I'm not disappointed with this one, just not quite loving it as much as their other albums.

But next, I shall be putting on my Starbucks Winter Wonderland CD I bought last year as I think it's time for a Christmas card to be made! It's either that or watch Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (current Lovefilm rental) while I make my seasonal fayre.

Ah, now that brings back memories, putting together all those Hemnes bits and pieces! It looks great so far! Hope those drawers are put together already?! If not, good luck!
How fun indeed,to see the same colorscheme Donna uses in her studio! I think those colors make it very bright and happy, so wel done!

Thanks PJ - the drawers are in but there was much swearing when putting together the second bedside table. LOL

Alas setbacks again as the lighting for the office won't work without some major work-around due, so hoping my track lighting will install easily in the kitchen and now need to find a new light solution for the office/scrap room - never dull around here! ;)
