Toddler Bed & Quilt

My son has been falling/climbing out of his crib. My wife wanted a toddler bed as soon as possible, which meant yesterday. She has had this in mind for some time considering she made this marvelous quilt for our little dude. The bed is pretty crude from a joinery standpoint. It's just butt joints with glue and screws. The dimensional lumber gives a nice break on the pocket book, especially when it's free from helping someone move it into my truck. The joints get some spice by button plugs. It's not finished with anything special, just some 120 grit. I figure we will probably paint it to match his new room in the house we are moving into next week. I wish I could have made it out of pocket holes entirely but the box o' screws wasn't in the budget when the wood is free and the 2-1/2" screws are given to you. Bottom line is that my wife is happy with her hubby the the little stud muffin is happy with his "big boy" bed.
