I had quite a few 42" pieces of select pine left from the triple bunkbeds I made for grandkids and they needed a space for 3 of them and mom or dad to read bedtime stories so I decided to use the no longer needed crib mattress and build a daybed using that mattress as the cushion. I built it to incorporate a storage area underneath as in a small room every inch matters! My daughter-in-law decorated it with pillows for extra comfort when they are snuggled in for bedtime stories. Very easy build from leftover wood I had.
