We made a Farmhouse Bed!

I still can't believe my husband and I built this. We have never built anything before. well unless assembling cheapo furniture from a box counts! It was scary at first but nothing you can't do trust me. It is not perfect but it looks awesome I think. It's about 2 inches too wide on each side of the mattress, not sure why but you can't really tell. I am super happy with it! Thank you so much Ana for this website!!

This looks great. I was wanting to make this (and paint it black) when we move soon. This was great inspiration.

You did a beautiful job. The spacing might be due to the fact, that Ana states in the plans that she turned her mattress sideways. I haven't read them in a while, just going by memory, but I think that's what she said.
