Steve & Elizabeth started a new project last week. I admit it is one that I encouraged them to do. I have a girl who is a book lover. It is challenging to keep them organize & neat. She is also in 9th grade this year.
That means more school books & notebooks than ever. However, she has a small desk & it usually looks like a tornado hit it. She’s okay with the mess but she admits that she “spills” over on to the floor around her desk a lot.
The plan is to build a loft bed for Elizabeth that will allow her to have more bookshelf space & move her desk under her bed.
She is terribly excited and enjoyed getting to help her Dad build the first part of the bed.
I love it when a need can be satisfied by Dad & the kids working together. They did a great job with a little help from Joshua.
We got our plans & this photo from Anna White’s site. Elizabeth’s bed will have the big shelves on both ends(more space!)
If you’ve never been there you out to check it out. I have a wish list a mile long. Hopefully soon there will be pictures of the bed part. Big decision right now is do we paint or stain the wood?
What would you do?
