Post #3102969

Hey all. I just received two more metal bed frames brought back by my other half from his homestead in Nebraska due to his parents decission to move into a smaller abode. I have not yet set them in the garden (the original bed is depicted below). But I want to set them up as a trio and have a tongue-in-cheek Papa Bear, Mama Bear and Baby Bear senario. To do this, I want to 'label' the beds, either by a sign on the headboard or by other means, without having the sign or symbol turn the beds into the look of a graveyard. Any suggestions for unique ways to label the beds? I was thinking of a plaque with pebbles spelling the owner hanging on the headboards, but am looking for suggestions.

PS... they will all be contained within one large surrounding border area and mulched as a group. Candylilies are in the first bed and I plan on putting a new lily that I've seen in a recent catalogue in another. Daylilies or asiatic lilies or amarylis may be placed on the third. The first two are full sized and the third a single size.
