5 Jun 07 Flatpack fantastic
This weekend we finished setting up the shelving in the living room, all that flatpack goodness brought to us by Ikea. It looks quite good and best of all having surplus shelving is something we desperately need, as storage space here is very limited. The cardboard box mountain that formed from the move, these shelves and also the bedroom furniture flatpack, has now been bundled up and placed into the brilliant new recycling bin that arrived outside our building today.
The presence of that recycling bin means we no longer will trek bagloads up the road for 15 minutes each time we recycle. Fantastic news!
You may have noticed the absence of proper seating furniture in this room. We are still waiting for the sofa to arrive, which will be at least another two weeks. Also we are ordering one more wardrobe for the bedroom, but after that we will officially be ’settled in’.

GET FED:
Nice Ikea wall. Compact living at its best. Do you plan to paint at all? I’d put some colour in the trim if it was my place.
