i think it would be great to own one so that i can get rid of my cheapo walmart plastic bins! the only thing keeping me from buying one is that i want to find an alternative to the fiberboard drawer liners. i own malm dressers (one tall set and a long drawer) and the fiberboard lining has caved in from the weight of my jeans. i keep having to get creative to prevent it from caving in (stuff sometimes gets stuck in the back where it connects to the drawer wall).

why did you not want the backing? just it could be see through? or because it was flimsy?? if you left it off cause it is flimsy, you could buy wood from lowes and have them cut it to fit the bookcase. i did this with all my malm furniture and it added enough *weight* to prevent them from tipping over if i left the top drawer open. is this the one you bought?

what i have for my bags is this one and it is very sturdy. there are others with more shelves to put stuff on display.

I was just looking at your pictures and thinking how pretty your set up was and a guy friend was looking over my shoulder and was commenting on how pretty YOU were. That's the difference between a guy and a girl. I noticed the makeup and didn't even see you in the picture (though he's right,your beautiful) & the guy saw you and not the makeup!!

Sorry if this was a creepy message, I just thought it was funny!
 
OMG!!!! Flsurfer!!!!That is the most beautiful MU set up ever!!! I NEED the mirror and malm. Love the tv on there. You must be so excited! How can you not be happy seeing that and doing your MU there every day!!! Congrats!
 
^^ Yay! It looks so purty, you did a good job! You look cute in the mirror, lol :smile1:

thx! :)

hahahhahah that is so funny! totally...wasn't it the fabulous Betsey Johnson who said "Girls do not dress for boys. They dress for themselves, and of course, each other. If girls dressed for boys, they’d just walk around naked at all times."!?!??!?! :)

I noticed the makeup AND her! not creepy!

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH ;) see...perfect point...women can multitask while men are so one way! ha!

thank you love!! i have full intentions of mounting the TV above the mirror because i have plenty of wall space above it but we'll see if i can run the cords through the wall. i don't want them hanging out everywhere! then i can put the other mirror on the dresser up and put more stuff lol

honestly, i am so glad i got the wall mounted VGH mirror! it saved me 6-8 inches of desk space. it wasn't that hard to hang but my brother-in-law had to help me and he was so patient hahah the base of the desk top mirrors is 12 inches deep and the MALM is only 16" so i didn't want it to take up the whole desk. with it mounted, it sticks out about 4 inches but that is way better!

BTW i just checked IKEA for the MALM dimensions and it's not there!!! :( i wonder if they are revamping the style or size and coming out with a new one?! hmmmmm...
 
thx! :)
