Book Case Project Update

I finally finished painting them and they are in my room. I'm still not completely finished. I still need to install extra shelves and find yellow wallpaper to decorate the back of it. I'm thinking I will save that until we move. So far I really love them though. They fit my wall perfectly and I think they really give a pop, which will only become more intense when I install yellow wallpaper. The thing I really like about them is that since there are three units I can really organize my books. The first unit, and only full one, is for all my manga. The second one with the doors has my anime, nick-knacks and some big craft supplies. The last one has all my novels, educational books and then some of my note/sketch books I use for crafts and ideas. Not gonna lie, one of them has also become a place I just toss random things. Another great thing is that I have a decent amount of space above my book cases to put more of my nick-knacks up there. I also put my encyclopedia up there that had previously been hiding in my closet in a large vodka box lol I think the move humorous thing about all this is that the extra room we were gonna turn into a bedroom as now become my mom's craft room.



My frame project is also almost complete. I just need to add the wire and maybe some extra details. Even though I really like it, I do not like organizing my earrings like that so I will probably either give it as a gift or sell it. Not sure yet.
Now for a quick update on myself. I've downgraded my phone and still need to save up for a ipod touch. I've just recently bought an actual GPS that I have named Henry the 8th. And yes, I named it that just so I could sing the song. My sewing machine has finally been fixed and I'm so happy about it. I was even able to get a bunch of sewing patterns for a dollar each. Now I just need to find the time. I'm on day four of nine days working in a row. Even though my sewing machine just got fixed I'm also saving up for a serger. I've also recently have been buying flowers for in the house and been arranging them myself. I feel my mom and I work hard and deserve a little treat like this.
