Maintaining my membership card to the lesbian club

So I've been looking for a drawer for my bedroom to keep all my cosmetics, nick nacks etc in and found one from Jysk. My mom bought if for me for all the help I gave her with packing, moving etc this past week. I really should start my own moving business since I've been a part of 4 moves these past 2 months. First Elviira and Mikko's, then my own, then my mom's store to a new location and Ybi's stuff back home. Let's just say that my back is happy it's over for now. But anyway... the drawer was one of those DIY types so one day last week on top of the many MANY hours I packed my moms fabrics and stuff after coming home I started to put that monstrosity together. It's pretty now that it's all put together but lemme tell ya, I wasn't happy when I was doing it! Took me 2 nights and some swear words, few hammer hits to my thumbs and lots of banging but I did it! Guess how many screws and nails went into it??? I had few left overs too because I didn't think they all needed to go in...where it's absolutely necessary, they're in and where not, I left them out. It's sturdy and everything so it's not like it's gonna fall over...just some drawers have 5 instead of 6. But I believe this constitutes as a passing mark for my lesbian DIY test! 

This is where I started. Everything is all nice and neat in the box.

Isn't it pretty? For some reason this picture is a mirror image, don't really know why... but anyway, I made it, I'm happy and that's all that matters!
