In the Great Green Room

There is a new bed.  Before, there was a built-in window seat, next to a closet, next to another window, across from the door.   Which really left only one wall available for a headboard.  Andy thought maybe he could turn the window seat into a bed frame.  And then he thought better and hired someone to do it.  And we couldn't be more pleased.  And neither could Tuck.  Here he is, just looking at his new bed:
Jason, the carpenter (LMF Custom Wood Work), is a friend.  And a talented woodworker.  And very patient with little helpers.
Jason was also patient with big people who had trouble making decisions, who wavered about wood varieties and who were indecisive over the number of drawers.
Jason works with wood that is harvested under responsible practices.  He also uses reclaimed lumber; Tuck's drawer fronts are made of hemlock from an old barn.  The drawers are HUGE.  Jason did not waste an inch of storage space. 
Right now, Jason is working on wooden puzzles for children.  He's also building a bookcase for Tucker and Celia's newest cousin, due in just days.  He specializes in tables and benches and lamps and countertops, but he'll obviously accept special orders.  If you'd like a quote from Jason for a project at your house, contact him here

And because I bet you'll ask, G'Ro made Tucker's quilt.  He calls it "my new big beez."

    Way cool project! Nice teamwork!
    Do you think that Jason could make siderails for Grandma Sandy's bed? After a night on the town, I carried Grandma Sandy to bed last night at 11:20 p.m. A few minutes later, she was rolling down the hallway..."trying to escape".

    L2A4 and great job Jason!

  2. This is awesome... from the thinking of what could be to the huge drawers to the beautiful big beez to the look on Tucker's face.

  4. I love the bed, the room, but especially Tucker's face when he's looking at his new bed, and as he's watching/helping Jason!
