So I have been talking for a while about hanging beds for Annie and Emma. We found the idea on
AnaWhite. We promised the girls that if we moved to California, they could get these beds. Well, their room wasn't configured to have beds just like the project idea, and they didn't want bunks. So Howard, being the awesome man that he is, adapted the plans to fit their room.
They now have L-shaped hanging beds. See that groovy red ladder? It has been replaced by a real wooden ladder that Mr. Awesome adapted to fit the spot. He also added the rails, not necessarily for the girls. We know its inevitable that the little kids will climb up there, so the rail is just a precaution for them.
There are big plans in the works for decorating. Current ideas: Christmas lights strung around the bottom, stuffed animals hanging from the chains, Anne's window from
Katie hung like
this or like
this. And somehow incorporate her copy of
No More Deliveries, which is a copyrighted photo just like the one that you can enter to win in a few days. Emma plans on plastering her side with Justin Beiber posters, just to annoy Annie.
So there you go, a glimpse into what the heck I have been talking about. If we ever finish them, I will post pictures of our updated bathroom and kitchen. Until then.

WoW! I love them. Howard is pretty cool :) I would've died and gone to heaven at this age with that kind of bed. Exciting!
Love it! Thanks for the feature...can't wait to see it all finished.
That is sooo cool!! What lucky girls- they have a Mom with oodles of creative talent and a Dad who can help bring it to life!
Thank you for posting pictures! I can rest at ease now. Those beds are awesome! I bet it makes their room so much more roomy. :-)
Gotta love it! Aren't you the lucky one to have married such a handy man. Thanks for the photos, I simply could not visualize it. Now I can! Lucky girls!
Mary would so love to have something like that in her room. It's kind of smallish so it would give her more floor space. Not that she'll ever get that unless your family wants to visit CO again and build some for us... We're not quite as handy over here.
