Carpet Laid! Bed Unfurled!

FINALLY, the silver dollar plush carpet arrived and was installed today. Third time is the charm. And what a charm it is:
It completely makes the bedroom and closet. Stirling instantly laid down and rolled all over it! I think she approves. The small punch list and the window replacements are the only thing left and then the room is 100% complete and 1000% better than we ever imagined.

It is so soft under your toes and makes that room quite snug and quiet. In short, it is a perfect master bedroom.

And every bedroom needs a bed. Recall the heavy box:

Will and I moved it up in preparation of today. The mattress needs a few days to 'grow' to its king size after being shrunk into the box. I pulled out the mattress, hardly bigger than Stirling:
And as soon I cut the plastic, it started sucking in air. I laid it where it will eventually go-- we still need to construct the bedframe--to give you and me an idea of the size.

Stirling has already staked out her place on the bed.


We have linens, the bedframe, and dresser. You will have to wait for the final reveal!
