Storage stairs for a loft or bunk bed with :

2 deep compartments which can store toys or extra bed linens 

a shallow compartment in the top step that is perfect for treasures or those large flat books

a small shelf under the middle stair that fits a rolled up sleeping bag perfectly

a large cubby under the top step that can be used as a crawl through, suitcase storage, could be divided into smaller cubbies, or could have doors attached.

Have you ever seen reclaimed boat wood? The wood from salvaged boats is repurposed into great furniture. The vibrant colors, texture, and the story - salvaged wood that's been a part of countless voyages on the sea...it all appeals to my sense of style. Unfortunately, it's really expensive. So, I studied several photos and realized we couldn't think of any distressing method that would create the look we desired. It doesn't look sanded or faded. It looks like it's been chipped away.
