How to Make a Couch From a Twin Mattress

An average twin mattress measures about 39 inches by 75 inches. There are also those made slightly longer for people who are significantly taller. This is also a good size for a guest bed. But what if you are not using your twin mattress anymore?

Here is one good idea-you can use it as a couch. If it has a bed frame with it, make sure the ends are uniform with each other so it really looks like a real couch. Here are some more steps you can use:

Step 1: Go to the mattress store and pick up bed covers. If you can't pick an attractive design that will suit well with your living room's color scheme, you can always make your own. Just follow the pattern of the old bed skirt of your twin bed.

Step 2: Pick pillows, pillow cases and bolsters. It does not have to be the exact same color of the bed cover it can be a different shade. Also get pillow cases with prints so you can mix and match.

Step 3: Now dress the mattress with the mattress skirt and covers. Make sure you tuck the ends carefully so the seams are not showing or the ends are not dangling.

Step 4: Now you can place the bed frame with the long side to be fitted to the wall. The wall will serve as the back rest and the headboard and the footrest will serve as the arms of the "couch". Place the mattress on the bed.

Step 5: Decorate the mattress with pillows. Prop the pillows to the walls and arrange them in a diagonal way. Mix and match the printed ones and the plain-colored ones. Place the bolsters in front or at the sides of the mattress.

Step 6: You might also want to put decorations at the wall. Put paintings with the same color scheme as the bed so you can tie the color up in your living room. You might also want to add a mattress topper to add height to the couch. This will also give more comfort to the mattress.

If you have guests over, this can again be transformed into a bed. You do not have to purchase a separate bed and a separate couch if you are on a tight budget. This way, you can save much on money plus you can get points for creativity.

Children's Play Table -- A Quick Glance in Building a Children's Play Table

www.KidBedroomFurniture.net. Children's play tables are sturdy and colorful surfaces where a child can easily and comfortably do his own stuff such as play, study, or even eat. Even with minimum building skills, you can easily make your child's very own children's play table and this will not only serve as a play table but it may also be used as a study table. With the use of pre-cut lumber from your local home improvement store, you can easily get the materials you need based on your desired table size and have the wood cut after your purchase. This DIY project is only a simple matter of assembling the parts which will require very little amount of effort. You can find many kinds of children's play tables and chairs with different designs and sizes though oftentimes these commercially sold tables are a lot more expensive. Some common designs which you will find are race car designs, Christmas sleigh designs, flower, and doll designs to name a few. You can also find many kinds of children's play table and chairs like the one that can be installed on the foot of beds, just beside the mattress, so your child won't need to use chairs or a futon and you can also find a bunk bed, cabinet, and play table combination. When determining the size of the childrens play table to make, you should always consider the types of activities that will be done with it as well as how many kids will be using this particular table at one time.

Building Your Own Bunk Bed - Part 2

Upon publishing my last article regarding the guide to building your own bunk bed, I have received a number of emails filled with questions. While many of these questions were addressing specific problems such as what kind of wood and nails should be used, I thought it would be useful to address all the general issues with a new article.

Bunk beds are indubitably a difficult task to receive. Dozens of wood pieces must come together tightly and measurements must be completely accurate. Measuring the wood pieces of a bunk bed can be one of the more difficult parts. One wrong measurement can throw off the entire bunk bed! A bunk bed should be stable and one measurement can leave the bed unstable and rocky. So in order to measure completely accurate, you must pay very close attention. First, depending on the type of wood you have picked, most usually a set of 2x4 or AxB wood, plan out all the pieces that you will need. Draw and list out all the pieces you need! This is different from the bunk bed plans that you will be working with as drawing and listing out the parts yourself will help you organize your thoughts.

After you have all the parts listed out, this is where measurements come in. With a tape measurer, do one piece at a time. Mark every significant point and where the wood should be cut. Be patient and do it one at a time! This may take a bit of time but once you're done, cut the wood parts the way they need to be cut.

Now you are ready to assemble the parts. Remember the parts and the diagram that you had before? This is where it will come useful. With all the different parts, you may get confused with what goes where. Use the diagram and the plan to put things together step by step. As far as screws and nails go, you want to pick something that is long enough to penetrate the wood but not long enough that it will poke out on the other side! Metal brackets for the corners may also come useful as they tend to last longer than simply screwing the screws directly into the wood.

Hopefully by now, you have what looks to be a bunk bed. I must emphasize the next step! Sand down the edges! Splinters and unsanded wood can crack and will not last nearly as long. By sanding down the edges and various parts, you no longer have sharp edges and you won't have to worry about the corners and the edges chipping off. Also, finish the wood! By painting or finishing the wood, you will not only have a much more beautiful bunk bed but it will last much longer.

So there you have it. Bunk bed plans are there to help you! Make good use of it. Now your children can enjoy a nice bunk bed and you feel rewarded with the fact that you have just built a nice bunk bed.

Sometimes Bunk Beds Just Have To Happen

There was an old joke some years ago, it went something like this: A mom and dad tell their two kids that there will soon be an addition made to their family. The older kid speaks up and says, "Does this mean we'll be getting a mini-van?" The same could be said of bunk beds. As one of the most efficient, space-saving designs, bunk beds are a clever way to maximize space in a way that's both fun and functional. The concept of bunk beds began long ago as a way to conserve space in sea-going vessels, but it's a concept that has transitioned well to the home market. Because most kids bedrooms are smaller than adults', it is not fair to cram them with a dresser, nightstand and bed.

The bunk bed often combines storage and a sleeping area in the same space usually occupied by a traditional bed. If you have one child, the extra bunk serves as an impromptu sleeping area for your child's guest. As you add more children to your family, the bunk bed's value as a space-saver increases, and even becomes a source of entertainment for make-believe and fosters creativity. When budgeting for your bunk beds, remember that you will save money by not having to buy additional furniture that may crowd your child's bedroom.

There are so many new styles of bunk beds from which to choose. If you choose wisely, your purchase could last you and your child from pre-school through college. One of the most attractive features of bunk beds is that most can be split into two separate beds. This way, your child can enjoy the new bed, even if you don't think they're quite ready for the experience of sleeping in the top bunk. When your child is ready, pile the beds into the standard bunk bed arrangement. Some bunk beds have a desk built-in, or you may find that you now have enough space to add a desk to your child's room. Quality bunk beds are virtually guaranteed to grow with your children's needs, and you will also be able to resell the beds if and when your child decides he wants something else.

In addition to the traditional double-stacking twin bunk beds, futon bunk beds are a perfect way to make the most of a smaller space. Whether used in kids' rooms, dorm rooms, or guest rooms, futon bunk beds offer a great alternative because they feature a full-size thick futon on the bottom, and a twin-size bed on top. The futon can then be easily switched from a full-sized bed to a comfortable couch. This option offers great versatility. Futon beds also come in a variety of styles (solid wood or durable metal) and designs (just change their covers to get a new look for your room). Traditional loft bunk beds are also great for small spaces; these work best for kids' sleepovers and for families who have two or more children sharing a room.

When is the best time for your child to begin using their bunk bed? Well before they are ready for the stacked bunk bed, children can be introduced to the concept. Today's stacked bunk beds are suitable for children ages 5 and above, but you will be the best judge of when the appropriate time is for your child. Typically, however, the best indicator of whether your child is ready for a bunk bed is if your child is able to safely navigate the bunk bed's ladder. It's not enough that your child can climb up the ladder, which is usually no problem for an active child, but teach your child that climbing down can sometimes be challenging. If you are there to provide encouragement and guidance, this should be a easy task to master.

In fact, kids will take so quickly to learning how to climb into their bed that it will give them a sense of pride and accomplishment. They will love going to their special, cool place where they can exercise their imagination. Many styles of bunk beds help to build on this activity by offering themed bunk beds: such as castles or rocket ships. These offer kids another break from television and video games, and perhaps a quiet sanctuary where they can curl up with their favorite book.
