Building this set ourselves and using pine of various sizes, we saved on the cost of furnishing this bedroom considerably. I shopped online for the linens and window dressings and found some pretty good bargains on closeout sales at West Elm.

Homemade Master Bedroom Furniture
Finally able to get a few photos of the bedroom suit we built for the house. We found these plans on a great site from Anna White. We made a platform bed and added a farmhouse headboard. Along with the bed we made 2 small bedside cabinets. I stained these with a stain with sealer in a color called espresso. Now that I have had my first real experience with stain, I find I really do not like the stain/varnish product. I found it a lot harder to manipulate the color due to the varnish. All in all, they turned out really nice and fit our rustic decor with all their imperfections.
