Bed, night tables, lamp. Arts and Crafts Heirloom Style
This is an ensemble I made starting in 2004 with the bed. Plans from Wood Magazine Oct. 2002.
The plans are for queen size but simple upgrade to make it a King. Wood is all QSWO and the finish is long forgotten.
The nightstands (2) again from plans from Wood Magazine Nov. 2004. Same QSWO.
Lamps (2) were added in Dec 07 from Wood Magazine 2005. Same QSWO The lamps can be light with upper only, upper and lower or just the lower. Or all off.
The furniture has endured well and used daily by wife and self. dogs not allowed.
Never posted before as this was before i was even aware of woodworking forums.
Be happy to answer any questions if I can recall what I did back then. Bed is 20 plus years old. other items year or two less.
Still have all the plans.

The rail connectors to headboard and foot board from Lee Valley. Used a center leg support under the middle of the bed. No issues from any of the wood, plans or hardware, all have served well.

Dog in the corner is a pillow. Looks like our long ago English Yellow Lab named Sandy. Sandy is gone but pillow still.here.
Sandy best dog I have ever had.
