YIPPPPEEEEE ~ PRESENTING MISS LAURENS NEW BED!!

At 7.20 this morning ~ a lorry delivered a much awaited package to our house........
(Yes, believe it or not, there is a bed in that package.......)





At about 6.20 tonight I started to attempt to make the new bed ~ after much moaning by my darling daughter ~ Bless her ~ I suppose I cannot blame her, as she has been waiting (and sleeping on the airbed ) for a long time!!!!

Several hours (and alot of huffing and puffing by me ~ and a sore thumb from where the screwdriver slipped ~ hee hee)later and here is the finished product...............


My girl all happy with her new bed ~ with all her High School Musical bits and pieces (she has a new HSM pillow and blanket, that she has been saving for when her new bed arrived!!).




All that still needs doing is the little pink and purple tent that goes around the underneath ~ to make a den! I am too totally exhausted at the moment to even attempt to do that ~ so that can be done in the morning........and then the room is finished (apart from a bit of tidying up and sorting out ~ and moving about of toys and stuff!!)

Not alot else to tell you about today ~ apart from the fact that it rained (AGAIN!!). I did get a gorgeous little package from Belle and Boo (a gorgeous etsy shop) ~ with lots of little cute bits that I ordered......I will save that for tomorrow ~ as at the moment, all I want to do is jump in the shower and go to bed (making new beds is a bit tiring ha ha !!).

I didn't think that I would be able to do it ~ but it wasn't actually that hard (I say that now ha ha!!). Lauren was wanting to sleep in it so much and my friends husband couldn't come and help out until the weekend ~ so I thought I would give it a go!!
I have just checked and they are both sound asleep!!
love and hugs ~ Tab XXXX

You can join the SOS DIY team now!!! Just stay away from Billy haha!

The bed looks lovely (and sturdy!) and I can already tell that Lauren loves it to bits. It'll be so nice for her to have her little boy free 'den'.

I'll have to check on your Belle & Boo post (and maybe a few others?) after we come back from the seaside. I love her stuff and maybe I'll buy a few more cards and buttons for little christmas gifts.

Love,
Tania

Gorgeous.
My hubby made the first three their beds but I think I will go for a bunk for my youngest. It just gives us a spare bed.

Too cute!!!

Hi Tanya ~ believe me ~ I had no idea what I was doing ~ but for once the instructions made sense!!
I had Lauren as my little helper ~ and she had all the bolts and the screwdrivers etc and was passing them to me, it was quite sweet!!
Lauren got all the HSM stuff a while ago, but was waiting for her new bed to come. She slept great and got up this morning and told me how wonderful I am for making it !!!! That made it all worhtwhile!!
love and hugs Tabitha XXX

love and hugs to you ~ Tabitha XXX
