Phase 1 of my Monochrome project is completed. Overall it is a success! My workspace is now a 100% mac altar – purely white and just the giant 24″ iMac and matching accessories and furniture and nothing else. The 3 drawers chest is also doing its job to provide some needed space for my ever expanding and overloading wardrobe! The new card-broad boxes are also much classier than the original ones I used for documents.

There is however one thing that did not go as planned: The wall stickers I got from Ikea. The nice flowers I put on my wall – not that it doesn’t look nice, but the problem is that after a few days the flowers slowly fell off just like real flowers!!!!! The picture below showed its condition when I first put it up a couple days ago, now some of the flowers and leaves are already gone. Within a week or two the whole thing will come down! This just proved my point – if there is a choice, always buy the more expensive one instead of the cheap one! There’s a reason something is more expensive than the other! When I first consider getting wall stickers to decorate my walls, I was considering a few options. The more expensive ones I found online uses very difference materials that would surely stay on the wall. I chose the Ikea ones instead because it’s much more affordable. O well, now I learned my lesson, from now on, stick with my principle – always goes with the expensive one!!
