Cool Ideas for Building Bunk Beds

If you are building your own bunk bed and have some experience with woodwork, you have the freedom of building something with much more applied creativity. You have the ability to do something that most people cannot do! Since you are building your children a bunk bed, why not have some fun with it? A boring twin over twin bunk bed just won’t do! Sure it will be sufficient and your children will enjoy it, but why not put some more effort into it and build something that will blow your kids’ minds away!

As stated before, a twin over twin will be much easier for most people to build. This is typically the case as you will easily find bunk bed plans that will help you build a bunk bed step by step. Instead of simply following the bunk bed plans, why not use it as a base and add some fun to it? Here are some great ideas you can consider if you are building your own bunk bed.

An L shaped bunk bed can add endless possibilities to your bunk bed! While a traditional bunk bed stacks two beds on top of each other, an L shape lofts two beds up and connects them at the head board to create a L shape. While the L shape creates a cozy environment to the room, you now also have extra space below each bed to add a desk, dresser, couch, or whatever you want! Now, instead of having a simple bunk bed, you now have a furniture system that your children can utilize fully! Plus, another benefit is that your children won’t have to argue about who gets the top bunk!

Other various options such as a loft bed, triple bunk beds, and futon beds are also possible! Add some flare to your children’s bed! If you are already looking to put some effort into building a bunk bed, why not spend a little extra time and effort in building something that your children will absolutely love! Sure, a bed should just be a bed, not a play area, but getting creative with a bunk bed can create much more play space in your children’s room so you won’t have to worry about your children playing on the bunk bed itself!

Get creative with your work! I promise it will be much more rewarding!
