Building a Pallet Daybed


This is pretty much a post referring you to another post.  Really.  Because the instructions at Prudent Baby are so concise, why re-invent the wheel.  ;)

I had a customer that saw this image on Pinterest:


It was pretty serendipitous that I had recently pinned the same photo!  She wanted one and I was off to find me some great pallets.  After I finished it and moved it into the living room, my kids didn't want to give it up.


The only major change I made was adding a "backboard" so the pillows wouldn't fall off when pulled away from the wall.  Just make sure you leave enough room for two cleats in each of the back corners.


What a fun little bed this turned out to be.



So make your way over to Prudent Baby for a knock-it-out-of-the-park tutorial!


Have a great day,
Debbie

  5. I agree with Sharon, I also like the industrial look on a daybed with trundle

  6. Did you need to add any extra support to the center of the frame?

  7. This is a brilliant idea when making a daybed with trundle by combining pallet and pipes

  8. I will replace our walls and floor out of wooden pallets since our old walls and floor are all eaten up by termites, also I will build a nice koi pond madeup of wooden pallet frame.

  11. I too was wondering if you make the actual paper doll magnetic? The doll is to big for the magnetic sheet.

  12. Love this! I’m already done with my Christmas crafts (ok, I’ve run out of time, so I’m throwing in the towel for the remaining gifts), but I’m already adding this to my list of next year crafts.카지노사이트
