a new bed for a new chapter.

a little while ago timmy and i bought an amazing 1950's truck (but that is for another blog post).

when it was time for this truck to move on to a new home, the ad was listed and we waited for calls. one of the calls was from a furniture maker. we travelled to his showroom not knowing what to expect. when we arrived i spent a good hour drooling over every piece of furniture there. the designers lovely wife happened to be keen for the truck. we came to an arrangement.

that's where this new bed comes in.

i have been dreaming about owning my own four poster since i was a little girl and now it is here. 

this thing was like ikea on steroids. we had a list of four instructions, one sentence each. the instructions could have been summarised as "put the bed together". 

we did. and we were still friends by the end.

all we need now is some colour, some art on the walls and a baby in our arms.
