Building a Bed with Kelly Mehler
November 2-7
Cost $790 - 1 space available Materials not included.
Skill Level - Intermediate
Building a Bed has been a highly requested class each season. In this class we will build a simple bed of your choosing. (The most popular bed has been the classic Pencil Post bed pictured.) We will collaborate on a design that can be constructed in the time available at the skill level you wish to work.
During this six day class you will learn traditional bed construction strategies that include:
- Making and joining a headboard and footboard.
- Choosing and fitting traditional bed hardware.
- Choosing and making the best joinery for a sturdy frame.
- Layout and efficient tapering of posts and construction of a tester (canopy)for Pencil Post beds (if chosen.)
