I made the canopy doll bed for my very first project. I had only ever put together particle board furniture kits before this. The building went pretty smoothly, but it would have been nice to have more clamps or an extra pair of hands. I built the bed and sanded it in one afternoon. I painted it the next day, and sewed the bedding the day after that. It was really fun to build and my 6 year old daughter loves it! I can't wait to start my next project.

I am sure it could work as a pet bed with a couple adjustments. You would need to have a solid piece of wood for the bottom and you might need to adjust the size depending on the size of your pet. The bed is very sturdy. My kids tend to give their toys a lot of abuse and it has held up great.
