Hi
folks
Haven't
a card to share today as been busy on and off all day and had some
atcs that needed to be finished
But
I thought I would share with you a bargain I have had!
Well
hopefully it will be a bargain lol
I
had an email through a few days ago from www.crafting.co.uk
offering super storage solutions at a great offer price
Well
I kept looking – then think nah I really don't need these – then
I would look again
I was aware the offer was limited and due to end on Friday lunchtime provided they had stock left
In
the end on Thursday I thought right I will have these so placed the
order
It
was £11.99 for one or a twin pack for £15 with free next day
delivery
My
thoughts were ok if I decided I don't want these I can just pop them
away and use for christmas pressies for crafty friends
Didn't
think any more of the purchase until a van pulled up and Pete shouted
up to the craft room – was you expecting some parcels...I replied
yes some storage
Well
when he had signed for them and shouted of me to come and see what
had arrived I was totally gobsmacked
Just
look at the size of these boxes....
I
know you cant really tell how big other than looking at the photo of
the box propped up against the computer chair
The
box actually measures 38” x 26”
Phew....
So
I opened one box and could not believe all the pieces to it
And
4 full A4 sheets of instructions too....
GULP!!!!
Oh
well – I'm a crafter so how hard can it really be to put some bits
of card together and create a super storage solution...
Ermmmm
Hard
– no very hard – rethink it now...
Mega
hard!
I
tried and tried and in the end just picked up the huge box and
dropped it in the spare room....
Today
Pete asked why I hadnt put the kit together so I challenged him to do
it
If
you look at these piccies you will see how well he did after almost 2
hours!!!!
Im
now wondering is this why I got a bargain?
And
then I think – I cant really give one of these parcels to a crafty
friend – it would be one hell of a way to lose them lol
And
would cost more than I paid for 2 to send on to a crafty friend!!!
So
Pete & I will join forces tomorrow and get one of these put
together
So
keep an eye out for the finished super storage solution
Ermmm
When
I say finished – I mean built
Mainly
because these are something you decorate to your own taste – at
least that has a DVD to help with ideas and also what can and cannot
be used on the box...
See
you next time....
