June 13 Report post Posted December 23, 2013 Fixing window leak?? Could be causing more trouble in this rainy weatherHi Gregc! I was getting blinds installed at balcony and living. After using curtains for 5 months, I decided to switch to blinds in liVing and balcony. My water leak problem is not solved.. Today while vacuuming I discovered a new stain which is at the wall near my wardrobe. And then I realized that even if I'm willing to spend the money changing my MBR window, I wouldn't be able to do it because my wardrobe is really close to the window. I doubt the workers have the space to remove and install the window. So it seems like I'm stuck with the problem.. How's your new place? Saw the table you put up for sale. Too bad it's too short for my wall or else I would have bought from you. It looks good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the leak gets worse, might ruin your wardrobe or flooring Enjoying my new place, thanks for asking! Been doing quite a bit of DIY too. Installed shelves by myself. Quite pleased.The side table is really nice. Sad to let it go but really too big for my place. Maybe a better price can sweeten the deal for you? It'll look good in your place I'm sure!

I was using curtains with IKEA rods for five months but felt that curtains didnt go with the look in the living and dining area. So decided to change to blinds, but it was a rather tough decision. Not only bcos of costs but because I actually like the IKEA curtain rods, they are cheap and so easy to use. The rings slide on smoothly and it's so easy to hang and remove the curtains. The rods were installed by my super nice ID during Reno so I hope he won't freak out if he sees this. His effort is not entirely wasted as I'm still using curtains in my 3 bedrooms. And time to bring out the plants to the balconyphoto.png by BachelorettePad, on Flickrphoto.png by BachelorettePad, on Flickr Edited December 23, 2013 by June Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm no good at making sweet stuff. Im better with savory food. Made some pies but they were not captured in the pix. Here are some random shots of my contributions to other pig-out sessions.
