Well... it was bound to happen. I have two major mistakes to fix. One is the result of a poor design. The other is the result of inattention to detail. In this video, I show you how I fixed both of them. As a word of encouragement, if you ever have a mistake, take a breath and then attack it with a level head. It's ok if the piece isn't absolutely flawless. Many times, you can hide it discreetly. Sometimes it's fatal to the project. Sometimes, it's a blessing in disguise. Sometimes, it's just a flaw that you have to live with. It's up to you to decide what to do with it--remember, in all likelihood, you can just remake the piece if the mistake is too significant.

If you'd like to stay up to date on the real-time progress for the sideboard, check my instagram account, below. There, you'll see that I'm actually moving along at quite the pace, considering I'm not using any electricity except for lighting and heat (ha!) and since I've got a family and a full-time job!
Thanks so much for watching!

I hope you've enjoyed the progress so far!
