Hi Ana! I absolutely LOVE your website, and can't believe how much it has changed (all good) since I stumbled into it about 5 months ago! I've been scouring your bed plans for a way to adapt one to what I need for my 6 year olds bedroom. And just couldn't quite figure it out with the storage or farmhouse beds. So I'm respectfully submitting this line for your consideration to "Knock Off". He has a brand new full size mattress/box springs w/heavy duty bed frame (thinking ahead - rowdy boys slumber parties - ha!). Set up as a traditional bed, it just takes up soooo much room, so I was looking to place it horizontally, more like a daybed, with a headboard along the long side of the mattress. So I'm trying it out, sans furniture. I love this arrangement, but since I have no bed to contain the frame, the part of the frame where the headboard is supposed to attach sticks out and I've caught my leg on it so many times. Not. Good. So in searching the web, I found and fell in love with this collection. I love the clean simple lines of the furniture, and think they would work well from childhood through teenage years. Best of all, I think this bed could be adapted (by someone with 'know-how') to have the headboard (with or without the wonky little angled piece) along the long edge of the bed, and I could just buy/make a slipcover for the box springs. Even better, I could probably leave the slats out, add an extra 1/2 inch to the length, and place the bed frame right smack dab in the middle. Then my shins would be safe + I'd still have the whole look I love, with a long-side-headboard . . . or would you then have to call it a "sideboard"?! Thanks so much for sharing your creativity - you are an inspiration!!
