I have known this bed for as long as I have been alive. My mother told me the other day that her and my dad bought it at an auction when they were first married for maybe $5.oo. Well, I am fairly certain that an antique wrought iron bed would cost a bit more than that these days. I was conceived on this bed, and it’s exciting to be able to pass it on to someone who clearly loves it as much as I do.
Painting it was a total pig, but it needed it desperately, and it turned out so well. I can’t wait ’til she sees it!
