Switching shelves

Today is Sunday, and the last day off before I start working. I finally got a job after three months of nothing, and since Daniel started seriously applying a bit later than me, we're guessing his job will come in a few weeks from now ;-)

For quite a while now, we have entered the living room, dumped whatever we were carrying on the white chest of drawers, and so that surface has been very cluttered and full of strange items that doesn't normally go together, like nailpolish, screwdrivers and newspapers.
We remembered that there are a few old homemade shelves lying around in the garage, and I went to see if that would work out over that white dresser.
While I was deciding that it didn't, Daniel suggested trying to see if the white floating shelf in the bedroom wouldn't work better. It did.

But it did not want to move without a fight. A broken off screw made the operation quite long and very dusty, but after an hour of pulling, twitching and grinding, it came lose, and we're one step closer to actually having to paint that bedroom and make it really ours.

And now it's late, we have spent the day making a meal plan for next week, baking and freezing naan bread, looking for a lost pheasant and making some ginger and caramel fudge. The white shelf makes the dining area much nicer, and it can only be called a successful end of a nice weekend.

Screw absolutely not giving up without a fight 
Daniel won.

All done - watered and everything


And now lifting some of the things that looked cluttered on the chest of drawers.
