The Delights of home…..
So, FINALLLY. After – oh, months – seriously – like two months, our bed is finally done. The headboard is recovered, the platform is built, the mattress is here, the memory foam matress pad is here, we have duvet covers and sheets and pillows and the ‘down’ comfortor we’ve had for at least a year and…..
It’s FABULOUS. Oh my god. seriously, yall – climbing into that bed is an orgasmic experience – even if I’m climbing in alone. It STILL takes up 90% – okay, okay, 85%, of our bedroom, but you know what? I. Don’t. CARE.
This is the headboard I recovered in black ‘leather’. It was orignally a pale brown microfiber, that me & C both knew would get INSTANTLY dirty, so – we wanted leather. It was actually MUCH easier than I thought it would be to cover it – even the corners didn’t give me TOO much of a problem.
These are the hot little nightstands that light up (we have nightstands! Real ones, not ones made out of a stack of books and a milk crate!) That’s my light stand, with my marvelous sunlight alarm clock, a good book, and my thermometer….
So – FINALLY – there’s our bedroom/bedset. I forgot to take pictures of the anteroom (which isn’t finished yet, anyhow) so I’ll do those – later.
COOL! Love the chair rail in the room!

I think it was Coco Chanel who said, “All one really needs is a divinely attactive bed.” She could have added “and a basal thermometer . . .” *winks!*

Oh – having a lovely bedroom is such a source of joy. We spent *so* much money on our bed, but it’s worth it to me every single night as it’s so comfy and lovely. And I just love your bedside tables…. (haven’t heard ‘nightstands’ – must be an Americanism. The things you learn on here!)

Right on we’ve got the same sheets!! And you HAVE to tell me how that memory foam works for you. Dyfais and I have been thinking about trading in the old bed for something more space-aged as lately we’ve been having horrible trouble sleeping. This might be due to the fact that Dyfais snores like a camel in upper respitory distress and I spend most of the night poking him to make him rollover, but hey, if a memory foam bed fixes that, I’m all about it.

I’ll bet you fall asleep instantly as soon as you hit the pillow. Good job on the head board. Creative.

RYN š I am the same way with faces, but yours has never rung that bell for me the way mine does for you. Have our paths ever crossed in Florida, Georgia or New York? Hmm….. š

Atlanta is the best bet, because I was there from mid 1998-early 2000. I have only been to Kennedy Space Center once, and not during the time you were, and I have never been to NYC. š I hardly ever left Conyers though… š

Nope. I worked at Gwinett Place Mall for a while… Barnies and B. Dalton. Maybe there?
