Jigsaw
So our bed turned up yesterday, as expected, and today we opened the boxes with the plan of putting it together. As we opened up each box we kept expecting to find what you would expect with any furniture that required some assembly - instructions. But alas, these were nowhere to be found. So instead we set about building a 6’ king size bed like a large jigsaw puzzle, hoping that at no point we would screw or hammer something into a place it should not be. And you know what, we did it perfectly, completing the job in less than a couple of hours, and quickly taking the opportunity to lie on it once complete. I think we both had a real sense of satisfaction in our work and the next time you’re building furniture, why not throw away the instructions and work it out for yourself.
