A horse gate and sawhorse... for bedroom furniture

I'll admit, this is not your typical bedroom suite! But I find great joy out of creating something from basically nothing. And such was the case with this project.

Both the gate and sawhorse were found in another's burn pile. The gate received some fun hooks, the 'bedding' was created from some sheets and linens on hand and the bedroom was complete! For free. :)

    A gate and sawhorse meant for outdoors share a life together indoors these days. The bedding was created by throwing loose linens on top of a quilt. Sheets we...

    The hooks offer all kinds of fun seasonal decor. Today it's summer. What will it become in fall? Hmmm...

    I just like messy beds. They look soft and full, so I enhance it further with crumply pillows and a top sheet thrown across the width for colour and fullness.

    @Sherry R. That's the piece at the end of the bed - it's a really old timey saw horse. You don't see them like that much anymore. Pretty cool huh??

    @Donna W. - love the shabby chic - sort of rumpled look!! I don't think there are too many people who can deliberately create this and make it look romantically messy - in a good way!!! ;~)

    @Donna W. It's me AGAIN!! My father was a carpenter & bricklayer. I well remember him having saw horses just like yours. Wow, what wouldn't I give to have one of those now!!!

    I'm soo glad HT has a option for editing after submit - I'm glad you left the SH a la naturale - being old and worn is it's true beauty!!!

    Love it. Wish I had it as a girl! Love all the rustic accessories and the rusty ones too. The beauty is in the age.
