Toddler Farmhouse Bed

Submitted by benabb on Wed, 09/05/2012 - 20:34

I followed the instructions to a T.
This is a very simple build and makes a great bed. My daughter loves it and I love the look.
I didn't screw down the 1x2 supports because I was having trouble with the wood splitting. It's worked out fine this way, I just need to rearrange a little bit when I change the bedding on her mattress.
If you have a kid who likes to climb or jump on their bed a lot, be sure to use a lot of screws to connect the bed frame to the foot board.
