playhouse loft bed

I started with the castle bed idea and it eventually evolved into this. It was very simple construction. I basically built 3 wall panels and screwed them together. I used 1x8 for the wall paneling. Then I attached 2x4 horizontally to the studs on the wall and the wall panels to support the plywood I put down to hold their mattresses. It's been a big hit. I added a doorbell and a mailbox, too.
