DIY IKEA PLATFORM BED made from Kallax/Expedit bookcase! | Chelsea Mason

Описание: FAQ:
► Where is Part 2?
Unfortunately, there won't be a part 2 Sorry! I moved from that house a few months after making that video, BUT if you would like to see more DIY's then let me know in the comments!

► I don't think the bed will hold my weight...
DISCLAIMER!
I've had the bed for a bit over 3 months & it was still standing so very strong! IF YOU ARE WORRIED ABOUT IT NOT SUPPORTING YOUR OWN WEIGHT... Apply some extra supports with hardwood or something of that nature.. like with any DIY you need to adjust certain things to suit your own needs!

► Can you have 'special cuddles' (or do any vigorous activities) on the bed?
Sure! If you believe you have built the bed sturdy enough as well as re-enforcing the structure. But proceed with caution.

► What size is your bed?
It's a double bed and I believe elsewhere in the world it is known as a 'full-sized bed'.

► How do you get up onto the bed?
I simply threw one leg over the other.. but you could use a small step, EASY! It's really not THAT ridiculously high.

► You put the bed in the wardrobe, why? And where do you put your clothes?
I put the bed inside the wardrobe frame so I could:
1. Have a view outside my window.
2. Have natural lighting flow through my room easily.
3. Feel like I was in a little hiding spot.
I then bought a free-standing wardrobe and used that in the corner of my room to store my clothes as well as using the boxes in the book unit/bed.

► What if you fall off the bed?
Ouch, that would hurt.
