Boys’ Bunk Bed Room

November 29, 2017

This post is sponsored by City Furniture*

Hey All!  I am pleased to announce that my boys room is FINALLY 100% finished!  A few years ago I started my little boys’ plane themed room. I have always known how to use tools, (construction background) but furniture building is actually a hobby I picked up a few years ago. One of my very first  projects was a bunk bed for my boys. Let’s just say, it was a classic learning experience.  You know the old saying “measure twice, cut once”?  Well, I am a little too impatient for said motto.  Somehow my dimensions were off and I made the bunk bed a little too small for a standard size mattress. Whoops!  Well, I was desperate and just MADE the mattress fit. As a result we have absolutely destroyed their mattresses over the past few years.  The kids were past due for new mattresses,  but that meant building another bed!? Ugh.  Sometimes, even I need to accept that I cannot do it all and I need to get reinforcement from the professionals. As you all know I have been ridiculously busy  remodeling a home and building a shop, but the kids NEEDED a new bed, and I didn’t have the time… So allow me to introduce you to my lifeline, City Furniture.

After shopping around and comparing prices and reviews I found that City Furniture  would be just the ticket.  They  had a  great selection of Kid/Teen  bedroom furniture to choose from. 

After heavily  considering it, we opted for the twin over twin bunk bed with a trundle pullout! We have little cousins that like to have sleepovers and it is nice to have an extra bed readily available. Because let’s be real, who ever had a good nights rest on an air mattress. 

They  had several options that we considered,  but I thought that the white was just what this space needed. I wanted it to be light and brighten the space. Ultimately we opted for  the “Lauren” bunk bed.
 It was the perfect fit ! Here is a view of the far side of the room.  I just love this little nook consisting of an up-cycled bookcase, a tent made by yours truly, and a big comfy reading chair inherited from a friend.  The far wall consists of a crate dresser I made for my kiddos to store all their toys. (I built this after I had a few years of  furniture building under my belt, and you can get the build plans here.) As well as a world map I painted on a flat sheet!  

Here is one more satisfying last shot of the kids’ room!

There is so much satisfaction in knowing that …

  • A.) The space is “check off my list”DONE!
  • B.) The room is beautiful and highly functional.
  • C.) It was done at a very affordable price.
  • And last but not least my kids LOVE it!  I am calling that a WIN!  Thanks so much for reading along!

Take Luck,

Corey

Meet Corey

Hi everyone, my name is Corey, and I have a problem. I can’t leave well enough alone… The best therapy usually involves a variety of power tools. So, in the few “spare” moments I am not entertaining my two beautiful, rambunctious, boys, I can typically be found hunched over a sewing machine and/or covered in sawdust. All in the efforts to create a perfect balance of aesthetics and practicality in our home.
