4 shelf book case


This is obviously a four shelf book case, it is ready for me to stain it puritan pine. The back is not on it yet, it gets stained before it is put on. Also on this order are two dressers. I will post pictures of them later. I don't have the prices in front of me right now but the total for the shelf and two dressers is $630 and they are all stained. So a pretty good deal I think.

Note to self...

Do not be so cheap when buying gloves for staining, the off brand is not as good as the name brand. The ones that cost half as much are not just as good. Go all out splurge spend twice as much, it is worth not having your cuticles red mahogany for weeks.

Ciera twin over full

So here is how it turned out all finished and put together. We love it, and the customer loved it too. So what more could we ask? This is the coolest ladder we have done so far. It turned out great.
So the official information is that this is a Ciera tin over full with two drawers underneath. This set can come apart and be separate beds. The finish is called red mahogany. If you want this bed or you have any questions send us an email at fhlunsford@msn.com

We do not sell mattresses, (they are the customers) this is what you would actually buy from us
with the slats you can use normal mattresses without a foundation.

staining ciera twin over full


This is the part that I love, my husband does such beautiful work, but when you add the finishing touch and see what it is going to be that is amazing. We had a little trouble getting the color right and I am hopping we got it right. The color that our customer wanted we could not find. We are really liking how it is turning out, we hope the customer agrees with us. Well I must get back to work, I have to make the whole bed this color!

Ciera twin over full

I am calling this our Ciera style twin over full, it is a special order but then everything we do is so I should say that our customer gave us the design instead of choosing one we already have made in the past. Which is cool. It is solid on the bottom because it is going to have two drawers on the bottom and this well keep you from seeing them from the front and back.
The other side looks just the same to cover the same drawers.

Another cool thing about our customer's design is that these beds come apart. So if they ever want a full bed that will basically be a captains bed, and a twin they just take them apart and there they go. Next step is stain which is going to be dark cherry.


Something a little different

This is a bed that we have given to our kids. It was a special order that never really got further than us building it, the part where we deliver it and get paid did not happen. So in the lemonade from lemons tradition our two youngest boys got a new bed. The bed was ordered as a triple bunk bed, but we set it up as a double loft. This is the little hole that the one on the lower bunk climbs through to get into his bed, he thinks that is very cool
The space underneath is really just enough for them to play, they have already hung a sheet to make a little cave. We think that we might build a dresser to fit under there, maybe with a shelf under for their shoes. You could also order it with shelves. The possibilities seem endless. We sell this bed for $295 unfinished and $325 with stain or paint.

I forgot to take the picture

We have finished headboards for the twin over full bed we are building but I forgot to take the picture. Knowing that there are giant spiders out there (see our night life) I am not going out there by myself to take one in the dark. It will just have to wait untill tomarow. Sorry
