Leo F says:

well, you better make sure that you will drill the beam or studs inside the wall! personally I don't like fixing this kind of DIY thing onto the house as it could make a big mess later down the road….

SilverFlame819 says:

What a great video. So creative too! Thanks for sharing! 🙂

Cheaquetta Johnson says:

Hi, I love your video and cool bed creation!  I'm definitely going to make this bed.  We have a re-use home fixtures and building supply warehouse near my home and this is where I'm going to find the shelves.  They also have wood and paneling.  I hope buying recycled materials will cut the cost of creating your great project.  Thanks for this video!

Not a bad idea, but your framing is kind of sketchy. I would use 2×4's as a minimum to attach to the walls, and use 3 2×6's notched at the ends for support for the mattress. And I would also add additional support to the tops of the cabinets as they are just cheap particle board. I'd at minimum laminate a layer of 3/4" MDF shelf material with glue and screws to the under side. Running a string of LED lights (like bright Christmas lights) might help to light up the storage space better, as you could have light from all sides.

Danika Hilkey says:

Omg! I need someone to make that bed in my room for my min wiener dogs!!! Gr8! Idea

Rubik says:

better to use 5 dollar tables! buy about 12, join them with tape and you will have great spacious bed with plenty storage space below

Roger Fern says:

That MDF might be toxic, right?

huedrian 9 says:

that space under the bed is also pretty safe for crissis, if someone get into your house you can hide inder
