it's because the energy you expend on organizing other places feels more like a gift as opposed to your own place which then feels like a chore. Maybe do a organizing swap with someone who's system you can work with and vice versa
the box is finally done and put together, quality isn't bad though I can always improve on my skills and come back later if it bothers me or I get bored
my stain finally dried overnight so I applied a thin layer of shellac and then remembered the other side of the pieces that I need to repeat the process for. yay ! yippee !
applied two layers of stain, I should be able to apply shellac in a couple hours then let the wood dry overnight before I can construct the box again...though I will have to wipe the glass again ugh
been poking at my box (which I took apart for ease) and I think I'm almost to the point where I can sand off the original stain and apply a new walnut stain (made by mixing dark and light walnut)
