"New" Bed

Back when the kids shared a room, Josh had a loft bed. It wasn't quite as tall as a bunk bed yet way taller than a regular bed. When we moved Josh into his own bedroom, which used to be the office/guest room, I had the bright idea to cut down his bed to a normal height and paint it something cooler than white.

Well. That was a couple years ago, maybe only a year and half if I'm conservative. Mainly the hang-up was that I had crappy paint that I didn't want to use and I've found I'm awful with a brush and a smooth surface. This whole time he's had a mattress on the floor. He never minded.


Walt talked me into spending $20 to get spray paint. It works much better! Finally I painted the bed this weekend.


Walt put it together Monday when the paint was dry. Finally Josh has a new bed.


Josh loves his camouflage bed in his flame orange room.


There's even a small ding already! I have to take a deep breath and get over it.
