Sorry there aren't more pictures of the building of it. We ended up rushing through it because a storm was moving in. In total it took about 4 hours to build the boxes and headboard. We already had the upholstered portion of the headboard that I made from scrap a few months ago so we made the bed to fit around it. We decided to leave it without a footboard so that we could slide things underneath easier. This has made storing things underneath very easy, we even keep our laundry baskets tucked underneath and we can have easy access. By making the cubbies slightly smaller we were able to make a total of 4 cubbies on each side and we can store all of our clothes and were able to get rid of our dresser.
