I ha...I am completely with you about the bed frame. I have an old waterbed frame that is the ugliest thing in the world, but so useful. I like beds to be high, wish I had the time/ingenuity/dedication to make what I want. Should be high, have drawers underneath, and shelves on the headboard to place books, reading glasses, and such. Also want the 4 posts with rails at the top to hang the mosquito netting. I know it's overdone but I still like such stuff. I am always eyeing the big manzanita bushes around my place as I think the wood is SO beautiful and would build my bed out of it, well at least the 4 posts which would be the legs as well. Manzanita is hard to find that is big and straight enough for such a monster, but it does exist. The frame rails would actually have to be build out of something else I think, something straighter so that the drawers could hang from the rails and still clear the floor by enough inches to allow cats to chase mice under and back out, or leave body parts for me to fret over when the smell becomes too strong (just thought of that). Not enough room for dogs to get under. Love the idea of the drawers going either way, except I thing three smaller shorter drawers at the foot of the bed would be good for maybe off-season clothes.<BR/>Long drawers underneath would also be good place for rifles and other such things that you might want close but out of sight. That's something I have thought deserves a good hidey hole.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
