My room is gradually coming together. My bed is no longer in the living room.
I took this old set of waterbed drawers….
And sanded and stained them a little and put them under my bed…
But my bed looked a little plain.
It needed a footboard. So out I went to my pile of free doors and found a set of bi-fold ones. Did you know that the height of closet doors is the same as the width of a king size bed?
Remember all those ends and sides I cut off the other doors?
I used them to frame the bi-folds and ta-da… a footboard…
Just a little too plain for me so I cut up some more ends and sides…
Then I took the finials off a curtain rod I found at a thrift store ages ago and screwed them on….
I sanded and painted…
Looks nice but I wanted a more aged look so I sanded and stained it a little…
Much better….
I’m tired, I think I’ll go soak in the tub…
That’s better.

I love the waterbed drawers. They make such great storage. Your bed turned out great. Love the footboard. The little fella in the tub is my favorite picture though. He's a keeper for sure. Love the chubby little legs.
I just got rid of an old water bed with those drawers. What a great idea. You need your own HGTV show.
Now that little soaker. Oh my gosh, that baby is adorable.
Absolutely amazing!
You are one handy-dandy lady. And you look so young soaking in the tub after all that work!>) Diana
