Henry's bed

In my last post I talked about Henry's birthday gift; his bed! I wanted to show you some more pics of the bed. We're so happy with the results! We hacked the Ikea Kura bed just adding one more "mattress zone" and make it like a bunk bed, but it isn't as tall as regular bunk beds are, because we were afraid of the big beds!

We just painted all the wooden pieces of the bed with Agatha Ruiz de la Prada's paints that has amazingly fresh colors to use for kids or modern homes. The color we used was "agua" (water). Then we asked our friend Javi from Looping if he could put some photos in the bed blue panels, and he did that fantastic job! And then it was just hard work from Henry trying to assemble all the pieces and cut the parts where the 2 beds had to join.

And this is the result!!!


For the large front I used one of Rina Kroes sets to make the panels called "Oh night divine!"


Oh, almost forgot that the steps were painted with a regular crafters paint in bright colors to add a bit of more color to the bed. Oh and also all the bed has a top coat of "outside" barnish just in case the kids go to the higher bed with shoes on or whatever... You know with kids the "just in case" is the most important part of the project! lol...


ANd now all the Pokemons are enjoying their life in a higher place, and had occupied the blanket Henry's Grandma made for his birthday! lol
And also Hulk, Iron Man, Lighting McQueen....
