Thanks so much for the kind words!
Of course! I took some more pictures to show the construction. Sorry my photos are all cell-phone pics, I don't have another camera.
I made the head and footboards from leftover dollhouse wood- you can buy wood shapes like these at craft stores though. And then the frame and nightstand are popsicle sticks I cut the curved ends off of. I used hot glue to bind everything together, and for paint I took some dark gray acrylic and watered it down a lot so it acted more like a stain.
The mattress and pillow are made from old curtains, polyfill, and black beads. I hand sewed everything because I find the machine to be more troublesome than it's worth with such small stuff! The sheet, fitted sheet, and pillowcase are also from old curtains.
