We put Maddy's bunkbed to rest...
(Thank you Lord)
It was like trying to fit a Buick in a shoe box....really.
So what we needed was a bed made for her.
I found my inspiriation from Layla (love her)
And I found my plans from Ana White.
Jesse was just the man for the job!
He had the day off and is use to me bossin' him around...ha!
If you can build a box...
You can build this bed. Easy!
Justa box.. x 3
One.
Two.
Three.
Each box has two cubbys with a divider in the middle.
A lil trim work and ready for some paint!
Aint' she sweet!
The three cubby's hidden against the wall hold her winter clothes.
(love this idea)!
This leaves three open cubby's for her to fill ;)
I am loving these baskets from Big Lots
At 10.00 a piece Holla!
They fit perfect.
Leather handles..
I like the fact that they are fabric and slide in and out without scratching the paint.
If you should have this problem with wicker...
felt stickies for under your furniture work great!
Now just a few
What next?
Can't wait to show you more!

Oh, I love this idea, it is just such a great idea, looks very expensive, serves a great storage purpose, and is REALLY giving me ideas of ways to incorporate it in my own home! LOVE!
ReplyDeleteI love it. It came out great. I have wanted to try one of her beds for quite some time. I've been a little chicken.
ReplyDeleteThe baskets from Big Lots are great.

Very inspiring!
ReplyDeleteWas this a regular twin mattress? and if so what were the sizes of the boxes so I can get the wood cut. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI just came across your BLOG and love it. What type & size wood did you use on this project. I definitely want to make this but Im not sure what kind of wood to use and the sizes. Thank you! Natalie
