These are some of the pieces I will be using. A small wooden box that has hinges on it, a piece of wood which is a piece from something I took apart for another project. I also am using a piece from a broken pin. Also a wooden coaster.
The first I did was take the hinges off the box, I'm using the bottom piece of the box. I turned the piece over so the flat part is on top. I then attached the one piece of wood to make a headboard. Next I'm going to cut a wooden coaster to make a footboard.
Here's the wooden coaster after I cut it, I am taking off the pin that's on the top.
I then added the coaster to the bottom.
I made a mattress from a piece of batting which I glued some material on it. I then hot glued it to the top of the bed area.
I painted the bed a pink color and then hot glued on the mattress.
I am using one of the domino pictures for the headboard area.
Here's the bed after adding a little decorative painting and you can also see the domino picture on it and also the pin on the footboard.
I made a blanket out of a piece of red felt. I hope this gives you some ideas of how to make a bed out of a box, use items that you have, personalize it!
