Updatey Updateness!

BOY did I get stuff done this weekend!

• working on a pair of couch slipcovers for a friend (halfway through the first one) 
• sanded & stained the boards for the shelves for the craft room
• attached some of the outside facing pieces for the tank stand (until I ran out of nails, d'oh! Getting more tonight)
• changed the rear brakes on my truck (did the air filter last week, like I was talking about)
• also did a bit of work on some costume pieces for me and Kress.  

WHEW!

Pic updates later this week;  in the meantime:

DIY Shopping, September Edition

Not that there was a previous edition, or ever will be another.  You never know.

Let's! Go! Shopping!

Lowe's

1. 3 packages drywall anchors & screws
2. 1 metal wall-mount shelf rail
3. 3 metal shelf brackets (the kind that hang from said rail)
4. 3 pieces of oak-veneer MDF, 1/4" (unrelated to the shelving parts)

Design*Sponge

Advance Auto Parts
Which is, by the way, my very favorite auto parts store. They're always nice, patient, well-informed and informative - and they don't give me that "Helpless Little Woman" crap that some auto parts places are notorious for with female customers!  Yes, I CAN work on my own car, thank you very much, and I don't need testicles to do it! 

1. air filter
2. gas cap (because mine broke yesterday! WTF?) 

Big. Brass. Ovaries.

Ikea!!!
(Ikea with three exclamation points, because that's how much I love it).

1. 2 packages LILL sheer mesh curtain panels
2. 3 15" SAMLA clear storage boxes
3. linen fabric (AINA), white, yardage to be determined when I see the quality in person

yay!

 Now to DO something with all that stuff! I did put the gas cap on yesterday before I even left the store parking lot.  And I put everything away when I got home instead of dumping it on the dining room table or the garage floor, LOL. 

Got caught up on my sewing last night, and repaired a table that I bought from a friend last week, which I broke the second I got home, LOL.  More on that later in the week. :)





Ok, so I haven't gone to Ikea yet. Thursday!
