Look at What my Son Made Me!!!

Hi my crafty friends, I'm so excited to share with you what my baby made me this spring at school. So far he has made himself a tv stand, a dresses and a queen sized bed frame with a headboard and foot board. Well he has made me a tv stand too and you can see that here. But he also made me a queen sized bed too for our guest bedroom!!! OMGosh it is beautiful and solid as a rock! I'm so in love with it, love it even more than I do my own queen bed that we paid lots of money for. So I was working on getting this room pulled together so there are some things in the pictures that haven't been put in their spot yet. I started with making the bed. My comforter is old and totally worn out but it will do until I get a new one for this beautiful bed. Our grandkids can't wait to spend the night and sleep in Uncle Bret's new bed that he made. lol I can't wait either! So for Bret's grad present we got him a nice mattress and box spring and got ourselves one too and put our old mattress and box spring on the guest bedroom bed. I think our son made out pretty good, but I think we did too with this nice bed. I hope to one day give it to his first born child to have. Well lets get at it and see the pictures of this bed! I'm so proud of him!!

I am using a wooden tv tray as a night stand until I find something I like. This is a small room so it won't be anything to big. As you can see there is the door to go out the room and to the right where the tv tray is is the closet.

 This is the side rails, talk about beefy!! They are way bigger than what is on my own bed. Yes, our carpet is worn out too. lol I am hoping to soon get hardwood floors in the house throughout. One step at a time!

 And here is the foot board. I love the way he did the legs, they are tapered down and they look so pretty. I so love this bed!! He got second place on it at May Day. His is similar but he did panels on his head and foot boards. He likes this one better and I told him he could have this one instead. I really love both beds and it didn't matter to me which one he gave me. But being the sweetie he is, he said no-he made this one for me. Awww, how sweet is he?!! I'm not partial or anything though. lol

I hope you have enjoyed seeing this beautiful bed. I'm tickle pink over it!! Thanks for stopping by and letting me brag a little...ok I bragged a lot! lol Crafty hugs, Brenda

Look at what my son made me!

Hi my crafty friends, hope you are warm where you are at because it is cold here! lol I am changing gears here today for a minute so instead of crafty papers projects I'm going to share a wood crafty project my youngest made for us.  I just had to share!  He got third place on it at school. I think he did a fabulous job and will be glad to have my table back that the tv sits on now.

This is my table that the tv sits on right now:

And here is the cabinet that my son made:

He made "behind the door" storage for DVD's and whatnot:

It is made of oak and it is heavy!!! And the top of the cabinet:

Wasn't that sweet of him to do?!  My other 5 boys made beautiful furniture too but they never made us anything, which I was ok with because I wanted them to have their own furniture. My youngest and son #4 has made me some craft room things though. But our 6th child wanted to make us a tv stand since he has know I've wanted one for quite a while now.  He had already make himself a tv stand for his room which he got Honorable Mention on. Now he doesn't know what he wants to build next. lol  I think this was so sweet of him to do.  Thanks for looking my crafty friends, have a wonderful weekend!! And stay warm where ever you may be!!  Crafty hugs!
