Picture time!

The bed frame has been reassembled finally, and once again graces my room.


In order to get it up the narrow twisty stairs of turn of the century doom, Chris cut the posts and inserted smaller metal sleeves into the core.


This is the view out my front window.


And, as might be expected, this is the back window.

Your bed is beautiful.

I adore my bed. (It usually has more pillows and the stuffed animal is conspicuously absent, but it's constructed.)
I was pretty much waiting for the bedframe to go up to make the place feel like I live there. (:

Toast thinks he is conspicuously absent, too.

But it looks good, and clever Chris for figuring out how to get the frame up there. :)

He is very clever, and very handy. It's nice to have somebody to ask "Can I do , or will that cause things to explode?"

Sir, please to be spending a few days curled up in that bed with you?



Also, that place looks fantastically quiet and peaceful...

I don't know if we'd spend all of the few days curled up, but it is a wonderful place for curling and I think I could find room for you.

It's pretty quiet and peaceful, it's on a big parcel of land despite still being in a town which is cheek and jowl with other towns in the area. (Auburn Hills is just on the other side of highway 75.) And now that the snow has melted, I can see what the place looks like.

Are the curtains on the side just regular window curtains? If so, you may be one of the most brilliant people I know! I have a very similar bed (in storage until we have a bigger place) and never could figure out how to make decent bed curtains for cheap. Window curtains would do it, and the tab top kind look marvelous!

That is, in fact, all they are. And the drop in the back is just a long bolt of sari fabric--back in Mountain View I had the blue satin running over the canopy across the bed and a forest green brocade running over the canopy down the length of the bed.

Lovely! :) I made a headboard curtain for mine with a huge piece of fabric I had bought for a dress that I never made, with quilt binding on the raw edges. And then I moved and put my pretty bed (which is only a full) into storage in favor of cochese's less pretty queen bed. :)

Oh, very nice!

[cyranocyrano.livejournal.com]

Once I'm more settled, I'll try to take some photos that capture what the room actually looks like.

very nice... *hugs* I am happy you are happy and safe.

Life is different, but like the dinosaurs said--Adapt or Die. (:

Very nice. :)
