    Pottery Barn Inspired Farmhouse Bed – Update One Year Later

    March 18, 2015 /

I know I’m not the only one who pours over the Pottery Barn catalog looking for inspiration. I think I own a handful of actual Pottery Barn creations – a throw, a hook thingie (technical term there) and I’m sure there must be something else.
