So I have a love of searching the internet for furniture.
I spend too much time perusing sites for stuff i dont need just want.
Waste of time i know!
So i found this really cool bed on Overstock but of course they dont have it in a king.
Why not?!!!
Because that would make my husbands life a whole heck of a lot easier!!! So i inform him that i think he can build us this bed frame and that it will be easy for him to do when he comes home. He doesnt sit still very well. He went and got the wood and started measuring and cutting.
Isnt that a look of how much he loves me in this moment of lots of work?!!!
Isnt that a look of how much he loves me in this moment of lots of work?!!!I dont think he knew what he was getting into when he married me...
Now i have someone else to pull into my crazy projects...
He was doing a great job and so i had to come out and make it a little harder. I "helped" him with the laying out and measuring of the rectangles... Did you know that three forths of an inch and three quarters of inch is the same thing? Well we got frustrated with each other when we were saying it too the other and the other was just not understanding!
He finished it and painted it black like i wanted... now i want it white. Do you think i will get my way? I will post pictures when its in the house!

lol. this is awesome. i am the same way with furniture. i told dave i was going to buy him a jig saw for fathers day so he can make me something i've wanted for a while. then he says "uh, i bet you could make it yourself."
lol. he's learning.
I wanted to paint a wall in our house and started the project. I got sick of it and thought Michael would just take over... nope. The wall is finished and I will think twice before I dive into something like that again. You really are a lucky girl.
Dan is so handy. The only problem is that Dan wants to make EVERYTHING and not buy anything already made. Any time we see furniture, "Oh, I could totally make that." He cracks me up. We have somehow found a compromise between his building and IKEA purchases.
PS My boys are obsessed with this Disney show. Do you happen to know that there is a Disney cartoon in the am called Handy Manny? It's pretty awesome.
