Bedroom upgrade

After using it for almost 25 years we decided that our bed was in need of replacement (we did buy new mattresses halfway, but things started breaking off and it began to creak more and more). So... in december last year we sought out an amazingly expensive bed and heard it would take something like three months to deliver. We wanted to totally 'do' the bedroom as it had been 'done' when we moved into the house nineteen years before. And of course we kept putting off the work because there was always something else to do and besides we still had a month to go. Or so we thought until we got the call at the beginning of februari, a month before the 'planned' date!


Luckily I was able to get some days off work the same week so we could get started right away. Which meant: emptying the room, stripping the wallpaper, painting the ceiling (which first had to be cleaned and fixated - that stuff is evil - so we could use latex paint), wallpapering and finally: laying the laminate.


Amazingly this all worked out neatly in time except for wallpapering the corners and fixing the baseboards, but these were things that could always be done later.


So, a few days later the truck arrived and the workmen started filling up the room.


Luckily the stairs were not an obstacle for getting the bed upstairs (the days before the delivery we of course went looking for and found horror stories of beds that got stuck in the stairway).


I think within half an hour the guys were ready and on their way to the next job. Below the end result. Nice eh? It moves up and down with little motors too.
