But this three shelf bookcase from Target took me almost three hours to put together.
THREE HOURS.
And I was on Step One for half that time.
The problem? A horrible instruction manual (all 15 pages of it) accompanied by very bad illustrations.
But I perservered and put that darn thing together.
And I think it looks very nice in my new office space.

Indeed, it looks very nice!!!! Very nice office space!!! Love the shade of green for your walls! Cathy
What a girlie little corner! I love it.
Good for you for sticking to the project. When Mac was little, my mom came home with a Little Tykes elephant slide. I remember how we toiled over putting it together, but we were so proud when we finished.
Accomplishment!
A few years back, I had a student in my room who had severe learning issues, but when I bought some shelves at the end of the year, he was the leader of a crew that put them all together. At the same time I think Lego would have frustrated him.
Strange how the brain works, eh?
I love how it is just feminine enough not to offend any of the men in your life. I suspect moms of all boys have to walk a thin line. You did very well. '
Good luck keeping it that uncluttered.
15 pagine di istruzioni??
Comunque, Maria, ne è valsa proprio la pena, hai fatto un bellissimo lavoro, complimenti, mi piace tantissimo come arredi la tua casa.
It does look lovely; simple and elegant. And worth the trouble! I hate those danged instructions -- they're almost always terrible. I usually just go by the pictures -- or make my sons do it.
I hate instruction manuals too.
