Project One in DC

One of the first things that we did after arriving at B and L's was to make a late evening dash to IKEA. They had been waiting for the truck to make a haul. We hurried through the store, gathering boxes and just finished before closing time. Then a few nights later, it was time to start the assembly.

Step one of first box: Open box, find instructions, sort pieces. Two supervise while one works.

Step two: Make sure that you both agree on how it is going together. (Note the boxes still waiting.)

Step three: Do lots of screwing in screws, and be sure to get them straight and all the way in.

Step four: Make sure that it all fits together.

Step five: Use team work to attach the last things.

TA-DA!!! A finished desk.

I won't bore you with pictures of the next assembly job. However, a few days later this was the finished project.

You might notice that L is sitting in front of another box of parts. This is the beginning of the third item that was put together yesterday. It was two boxes like the second project.

And this is the third and final project.

Now they just need to find their home in the bedroom. We were glad that we could be here to help.

They look great. I am guessing they must be getting rid of something so those items can fit.
