These instructions for making a “bed cave” were proposed on ohdeedoh as a way to give kids who share bedrooms some privacy, but I want one for me! It looks so cozy, and reminiscent of the 1700′s New England beds, where people didn’t have heat and needed to curtain their beds for warmth. I used to want one when I was a kid after touring the Mark Twain house one too many times (ah, homeschooling).

I am, officially, in the middle of five projects at once. FIVE! Unfortunately, none of them will make me much money… Oh, hey, wait. I mean six. SIX?! Yeesh. Ok, six. I have notes that I’ve scribbled on bits of paper dug from the bottom of my purse while clinging onto a pole on the subway, sketches in drawers, and a box of business cards of people I want to contact to work with.

Also, totally unrelated, here is a photo of Tino from when he was new with us. He looked so sad and pathetic in his gigantic cone.
