More Twin Beds

Here's the latest bed design!

Rustic Bed

Some friends commissioned Tim to make another pair of beds for their sons. They sent us a picture of a bed style that they liked, and Tim set to work with what reclaimed wood he had. I'm so impressed with his creativity and adaptivity to make this bed work! The style is very rough and rustic.

Tim used some rough-sawn lumber from that small barn he torn down back in THIS POST. He cleaned it up, and sealed it really well so that it feels smooth and clean.

Rustic bed footboard detail

He made the headboard, footboard, and rails all separately so that it can be easily moved and reassembled. I loved the clean job he did on the slats...
Rustic bed Slats

They are dovetailed and fit in the notches so nicely. He used a sealer coat on them, too, and they are so satiny smooth.

Our boys thought the bed Tim brought home to photograph was so cool...I think they are ready for him to build a set for them! I hope our friends love them just as much.
