✨BUNK BED REVEAL!✨ What do you do with a houseful of guests coming for the week, not enough guest rooms and an unused closet off the bonus room? Undertake the coziest built-in bunkbeds project of course!!! …and plan to finish it in 7 days! This closet was already the perfect size for 2 full-size mattresses, and I had wanted to convert it into built-in bunks for so so long, so we dove in! I don’t know if it was a great idea, or if we were seriously crazy, because it took everything we had to get these bunks sleepable by the time our guests arrived. (Ok, I might’ve been a little too optimistic on my seven day timeline… Lol.) It took a minute to work out the plans, but once everything was delivered, the race was on. I decided to build the structure as a loft, because I knew in the future this would be heavily used, and I wanted to feel secure, no matter how many kids were playing on that top bunk. I’m pretty certain you could put a baby elephant up there and it wouldn’t even wiggle. It was so fun adding all the details from nickel gap shiplap, individual dimmable lights, a rope ladder and my absolute favorite Indian block print quilts I fell in love with in Jaipur. They are so incredibly soft, lightweight, and perfect for snuggling. And of course, there’s lots of blue, a pop of turquoise and plenty of crisp white paint! OK, full disclosure. I missed my deadline. Partly because I thought everybody was arriving on Tuesday morning, when in fact, they arrived Monday early evening. Not an issue at all, because I was so excited for everybody to get here, but I installed the railing after dinner, lol, and all the touchups and final painting had to wait. The good news? The bunks worked amazing! And the feedback from the two tween girls that slept there? The best ever! Would I do it again? Absolutely!! Although I might give myself a little more time next time.
