Family Project

We have a big family project we have been working on. Our goal is to re-do the boy's room to fit the two of them. Requirements: Durable, strong, storage, indestructible. Chris designed a platform bed for a queen sized waterbed and set to work. He built it out of heavy lumber and then we all set to work priming and painting the frame.




Once the paint was dry, the assembly process began. Of course, this involved all of the Y chromosomes in the house. Power tools- woof woof! 
We used the other areas of the room for toy bins and tried to get everything organized.
Shoes went into a shoe caddy over the closet door.
And the base of the bed held storage bins for toys, toys, toys and um...whatever!


More to come!
