this afternoon we went wild on an existing "desk" that took up half the room in the attic. after about 1000 screws (varying in length from 1/2" to 8"!!, buried under glue, nails, newspaper for caulk and paint we got it destructed, down the stairs (3 stories down) and in pieces in the garage... i would love to show the previous homeowners how to build things simply, more efficietly and much CHEAPER! oh yes, and there was electrical wiring tucked throughout this bad boy - so you could plug things in every you might think of! - did we mention it was built on top of the old carpet?

My friend just bought a 1960's fixer-upper home in Whittier and her dad (a general contractor) and I have been demolishing and re-building it! I know appreciate your hard work so much more!!!
In fact, I keep relating what we are doing, to the pictures I have seen on your blog. haha :)
