When you go and buy furniture from Ikea, you can expect two things. First of them very low in price, and second which usually always goes with the first… Low in quality. I’ve had this coffee table for a lil over a year. Matter of fact it’s my second one in two years, the first one broke right away. But I got another cause I have two end tables that go with it, and they kinda blend in with my furniture in my living room. Anyhow, so this table has been on it’s last leg (no pun intended) for a while now. It holds our stuff on it, but it’s very unstable. Every time I have to move it to vacuum, I’m so afraid it’s just going to collapse.

So the other day I came up with the grand idea of how I can keep it up and going just a lil longer. I’ll go to my local Home Depot and get some braces and screws and give the legs more support to the top. But just be warned I never said I was Bob Vila, I’m more like Tim Allen’s character from the old Home Improvement show.

The parts I purchased.. let’s see $7 and some change or $80 and up for a new one (and remembering that your broke)?

The table in question

These are the candles, wait it looks more like a gob of wax with the rocks mixed in on top of the table, this is what happens when you decided to burn cheap candles for too long.

Ok after deciding that I don’t think my bedroom will ever fully be completely decorated I’m going to share it with you all. And yes today I finally broke what I wrote in a previous post regarding no electronics in the bedroom and purchased a stereo for it. I decided that I NEED music in my room for many reasons (which I care to keep personal, haha). I purchased one that was a little bigger then I would of liked to have but it had the best sound. I’m really picky about my music and the the way it sounds. One of my favorite things about it besides that it plays MP3 disc is that it has a USB port on the front to hook up Ipods, and other storage devices. Specially since you can load up a media card alot quicker then burning a disc.

Anyhow here is my bedroom before move in

Here is my bedroom today, I hate the white walls with a passion..

Why do pictures never do anything justice. I tell ya my bed looks so much nicer then this photo shows…

And cause I have nothing better to do right now close ups lol. Can you tell I love candles?
