Sneak Peek of the Bed

Here is a little something something that shows what we've been working on. Getting close to finishing!!!! I'm guessing it will be finished by the end of this week. Cross your fingers because I'm tired of my mattress being on the ground :)

Sisters Meg and Steph discovered that while living the life of poor, newlywed, college students, with fresh little babies in the middle of The Great Recession they could still have what they needed and wanted if they got to work and created things with their own hands. This mindset has saved them thousands of dollars in living expenses, and as they share their knowledge with others, the savings keeps growing.

    Thanks Erin! Dave just made the plans up. He has them all written out though if Rick wants to use them. This bed costs about $500 for all the material, way less expensive than the real thing and has way more storage.

    Do you know how much the measurements would differ for a queen?

      It would be about 16" narrower and the length stays the same. Some ideas - you can eliminate the center console or reduce the size of both the drawers (depth) by 8". You would also have to reduce the size of the headboard and foot board by 16" also. We have had a lot of questions about a queen size so I think we will put together a post soon.
