post #2

yesterday we went to ikea to get my table extension, some jars and meatballs. I did not post any pic of my table extension as i made a few boo-boos with it, by managing to reverse one plank so the exposed woods show... and somehow the mini shelf planks wont fit the slots. so ya. not happy about that.

lesson learnt: do not attempt to build ikea furniture when tired.

Next lesson from Ikea... when you order a medium and large sized menu of meatballs, the only difference seems to be the size of the plate and perhaps an extra potato. mine is the smaller plate... so much for wanting less but hey i'm not complaining X)
I wanted to paint the jars we bought , but i only have acrylic paint at hand. So i decided to test paint onto some glass things i have on my table and the result was pretty ok. however, all it takes is a damp finger carelessly holding onto the painted area to damage and ruin the painting, as i discovered just before completion.

yeaaaah. the photos dont show where i made the smudge, but just the nicer parts XD
cherry blossoms are so pretty X)
and just for fun, i have to post this again here because i think holographic polishes are so cool!
while at ikea, i also saw some polka dotted umbrellas so i took a picture of them thinking Ying might like to see.

i'm off!
