I can't believe I built this bed! It's the project I'm most proud of so far and my daughter loves "my big girl bed!" I recently got a jigsaw and tried it out making the arch. It didn't turn out perfect but I'm probably the only one who notices it. I built the rails using 1x2's from the "Traditional Wood Toddler Bed" plans on this site and altered them to fit this design. I added a third rail to it because there was too much space between the mattress and rail when my daughter lies on the bed.
I found a bunch of free wood on Freecycle from someone local so I didn't have to spend a ton of money on this.
Thanks for the plans, Ana!!!
