My new Master Bed came in this weekend... finally. The original time frame was between noon and 6pm on Saturday. Nice way to screw up a weekend. Living Spaces called the day before saying that it would be delivered between 3 and 6pm. Even better...
Around 5:50 pm I was pretty worried and called. The service rep said she would call the driver and to hold on... she came back on and said, "I can't get in touch with him, let me call the dispatcher." She couldn't get in touch with him, either. My belief that I was going to sleep on the new bed that night was rapidly fading...
Around 6:30 the driver called and said he was on his way, but he had a couple of stops. At 7:35pm he finally arrived. The bed is big and somewhat complicated, but they got it all set up within 20 minutes. I'm pretty happy with the results.
I love the bookshelf at the base of the bed.
Eventually, I'll put stuff in there.
Yes, it takes up a big chunk of the room but it's SO big and SO comfortable! I usually am very close to the edge of the bed when I sleep. When I went to bed, I thought I was closer to the middle, but when I rolled over and tried to reach the other side, I couldn't (even with my freakishly long arms!)
I also worked on the upstairs guest room. I moved my old queen-sized bed into the guest room and am going with blues for the room. The art on the walls are gifts from a friend who purchased them at the opening of Toontown in Disneyland. They are the conceptual drawings of the attractions. (I'll try and post closeups later.) They have a lot of blue in them, and that helped my decision on the color.
Good shot of the rug and the new quilt.
FYI: The plant is real.
I need new nightstands... and bigger art, but that will do for now.
I swear that picture is hung straight!
I'm ready for guests, so stop on by! Well... call first.
Future Projects:
- Nightstands for the guest room
- Paint for the Master Bedroom
- Paint the entire house (it was painted just before I bought it and their palette is far more green than mine.
