If you haven't seen the 1st part, it's here. It will show you how I made the frame.
I glued a piece of the balsa wood on both the head and footboard.
Then I painted the whole bed dark brown.
You then can take a piece of cardboard, a little smaller than the inside area of the mattress, box spring area. Once you cut the cardboard, you hot glue on a piece of stuffing material. Batting is the name of the material used for the cushioning.
Then you cover it with a piece of mattress cover material.
Here it is with the mattress glued down to the frame.
You then take the material that you are going to make a blanket out of and cut the size you need, hot glue the sides together, unless you want to sew it together. I used an old hand towel.
Now to make a pillow! I made it out of some batting material and put a piece of material covering it.
This is what the finished bed looks like.
This is another view. Use your imagination and it will soar!
