the 1000's of dollars $150 project

remember the trip to lucketts and buckeystown? not to worry, i was there and almost don't remember it because it was so long ago. we had this grand idea to build a bed frame out of old farmhouse doors. that was february 2009.

i'm happy to report that the bed frame is almost finished and it is AMAZING thanks to the wonderful carpentry skills of our friend rex and impeccable color knowledge of our friend lawrence. and it's precisely because that the bed has turned out to be so AMAZING that we're currently living like this ...

you see, we decided that the bed must be the focal point of the bedroom since the bed is really turning out to be art. that meant that we needed to get rid of all of the other furniture in the room (although we will add a little couch or two chairs). and that meant that we needed to redo the closet, which meant that we needed to do a pretty significant renovation to remove walls, replace plaster walls with wall board and add lighting.

check back in about a month to see it in all its glory!
