You would be a lucky girl if you DO get him to make it for you - the shelves are fab! I think woodwork/carpentry is going to be my next hobby obession - have been wanting to do it for ages now. When I tell people this they usually look at me strangely, as if it isnt "normal" for women do want to do woodwork! :)
Go for it! I'd love to do woodwork as well, and after seeing my dad do some simple shelves, I can't imagine it's very difficult. You just have to have the right tools.
How was your weekend away? Hope you had a great time.
If only we had Ikea here in South Africa. It's the one store I really wish they'd open here as I've seen some of their other furniture and I just love it (and it's not too expensive).

Weekend away was fabulous - time flew by too quickly though. Loved the peace and quiet. Photo's are on facebook.
ReplyDeleteI'll have a look. It is wonderfully quiet there.
ReplyDeleteOr you could buy them... they're Ikea Expedit. They come in a few different sizes and are so versatile.
