I used to like the display wall but I&#8217;ve got lazy and those photos there has been hanging around since the day I moved in many years ago. I was delighted!!! That meant I could have a bigger display cabinet for my toys! I used to shove them into two small shelves from Ikea, and hid some of them in those underwater equipment cases &#8230; tucked under my desk. The only risk now is that my wife might scream\/faint\/kill me &#8230; if all my toys were to be placed in the see thru cabinet. Ermm &#8230; I don&#8217;t really have that many though.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ndroo.com\/blog\/images\/misc6\/NewCabiBetaL.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ndroo.com\/blog\/images\/misc6\/NewCabiBetaS.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"309\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>* Click on image for a larger version<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>The red colored laminate was chosen by Fitzand! I took a big risk asking him to decide the color\/texture for it. He flipped thru the pages of catalogue &#8230; and my heart was beating real fast. He suddenly pointed at a red one. Flipped a page or two and pointed at another red one! Yay! Yippeee! My favourite color!!! Since it&#8217;s my fav colour and my wardrobe is also in red &#8230; of course I went for it without a doubt.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The &#8216;girls&#8217; (those tenants on the left side of the cabinet) are luckier. I didn&#8217;t want them to be just living with <span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\">four<\/span> three white walls, so I found this piece of cute fabric and decided to make it the &#8216;wallpaper&#8217;. The &#8216;boys&#8217; on the right must be jealous but I need time to find some other deco for their section.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ndroo.com\/blog\/images\/misc6\/NewCabiWall1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ndroo.com\/blog\/images\/misc6\/NewCabiWall2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Putting up that &#8216;wallpaper&#8217; alone took me about half an hour! Guess my fat old fingers ain&#8217;t good with fabrics. It kept getting all messed up when I tried pulling one side of it. The fabric was about the exact size of the surface, with only about 2cm allowance, so getting it to fit (almost) perfectly was a big task for my clumsy hands.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I used some of those plastic trays to make that &#8216;platform&#8217; for those cameras at the back row. To hide the ugly trays, some other fabrics were used to &#8216;wrap&#8217; them up but soon I realised I ran out of trays and fabric. Time to go have some fun shopping at Daiso!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I&#8217;ll need some more time to get those toys arranged properly &#8230; and also clear my messy desk and existing drawers &#8230; moving the mess to the new drawers and cabinets.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Too bad it is already Sunday night and I&#8217;m too tired to work on it anymore. Spent the long weekend (Friday was a holiday!) doing nothing much but spending time with my family, babysitting Fitzand while his mommy worked, took a few shots with my Nikon FA &#8230; and stole some time off in between to move those cameras to their new home.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hope they are happy in their new home. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was only last month that wifey told me that she&#8217;s got the contractor to come fix up a new cabinet to replace the &#8216;display wall&#8217; I had in my study room.
