    Melissa , take a picture of the broken piece and then call Temu customer service and tell them it is broken, they may give you some money back . They did for me on a piece of furniture I bought and put together but was too small for my husband’s shoes. It’s worth a try .

    • @NoRegrets.
      @NoRegrets. 23 дні тому +3

      They have very good customer service of course it is typing but they refunded all of a cabinet for me when the slides were junk and would not function at all. So reach out they will do a partial refund for your broken piece

    👍Thank you, Melissa, for this great video🤩 My husband sat with me to watch. He said to me, "I think she is so sweet." We both think you could concur the world, and win!🥰 It is in your sparkling eyes👏 and your attitude towards life is refreshing❤ Have a great weekend.

    My husband (#3 & last) and I have been married 18 years, but before we got together I was single for quite a few years. I was very independent and had to put things together myself. I still put things together myself and I am pretty good at it because I have had years of practice.

  • @pattyvincent5401

    I would probably jump off a cliff before attempting this project! Seriously in High School they gave us a vocational testing. When finished, the teacher God bless her heart, said sweetheart do not go into any profession requiring you to put anything together! lol! Once my grandkids got puzzles with more than 10 pieces, they were on their own. I just can’t see how things should go together. The family knows and so put everything together for me.

  • @raylenetatum8185

    Dam Melissa, you did a fantastic job putting this really nice vanity together. It looks so pretty. You have way more patience than I do, honestly I wouldn’t even attempt to try to put something like this together. Just a thought: If you would like to make the knobs fancier, Dollar Tree sells glass ones in pretty colors.

  • @karenj6726
    @karenj6726 26 днів тому +5

    Get some contact paper for the top and for inside the drawers. You can even get a nice marble looking pattern. Take a piece to cover up the little boo boo on the wood inside the mirror.

    You talked of getting a mat to put across the front. Please note that if you get it long enough to put it in front of drawer, the drawer can not open, unless you were referring to just some type of protective paper.😊

  • @TheDaisytails
    @TheDaisytails 24 дні тому +3

    Yea. Thats cool and congrats on the build. I've made 2 pieces of Temu furniture in the last three weeks. I made a large printer stand that has three drawers and also shelves and wheels. And I made a large desk hutch that goes on top of my desk. I did find those black multi piece drawer sliders confusing but figured it out. I love that you are a real person and do real life stuff. HUGS

  • @aprilwaters2246
    @aprilwaters2246 27 днів тому +3

    As you know I have cancer so I don't get to do much anymore. I love to diamond paint but I had to work on a little TV table. I told my Dad how much I would love an actual work space. I found a nice basic desk/table for $30. My Dad gave me the money to buy it for my birthday )so I now have an actual workpkace. He gave me an extra $20 to buy some kits!. My hubby and I got it together without too much trouble and I love it. I would recommend their furniture if you are willing to put it together.

  • @LovePeace4all
    @LovePeace4all 23 дні тому +1

    God bless you! I have so much admiration for you - for your tenacity and determination to assemble (in my most humble opinion) a very complicated piece of furniture. I freak out just hanging a picture on the wall! You got it girl!

  • @bugcoppock3910
    @bugcoppock3910 26 днів тому +3

    You did a terrific job Melissa!!! I know exactly what you mean when husband and wife try to work together on a project.....🤣😂 It's really nice vanity, to bad a piece got damaged but you can always camouflage it. Was surprised to see that the knobs weren't white like the vanity but those can always be swapped out for different drawer pulls on Temu as well if you wanted too!!! They really do have everything......Take Care, hope your hands feel better soon ❤

  • @jansusanjennafletcher1712
    @jansusanjennafletcher1712 26 днів тому

    I absolutely LOVE putting things together!!! If a box is too heavy to move - I open it and take a few parts at a time. I use a muffin tin to hold all of the hardware and I like to use wood glue in all the places where pegs or cams & pins attach the parts together. Sometimes you run into a piece that won’t cooperate…that’s when I take a nice break, sit down with a soda & a snack and pull myself together! Then I go back at it! Hope the vanity works out for you!

    I bought a dresser from Temu! I'd been eyeing the exact same one at Walmart for $75 and saw it on Temu for $40, so I grabbed it. I love it! The funniest thing was it came shipped from Amazon.

They are pretty comfy. I use a wooden chair from a table set that a friend made for my (now grown) daughter. It was maple.....I wasn't going to throw it out 😂. And the shelving unit.... from a dumpster 😂🤣. Great job 👍 Hope the drawer is an easy fix 🙂 Have a wonderful weekend 😊💕 Kim
