Building a bed!

Ben gave me a bed for Christmas! But what was special about it was that he made it. Our Bedroom has been slowly coming together over the years.

For the first 4 years of marriage we were on a queen size bed and our room looked like this...

Boring!

Then we purchased a King size mattress and had it on the floor like this for 2 years.....

Then this Christmas the bed making began!

And this is what it looks like now!!!! I love my bed. It is BEAUTIFUL! Ben did such a great job and it only cost $150 to make! The room is still a work in progress. We have to hang a pallet that I painted a few years ago. And we need a more suitable dresser and desk. But having an actual bed is a huge step!
