Goodbye bunk beds, hello loft beds!

When the girls were little we decided that they would have bunk beds instead of two twin beds. So we made them bunk beds and attached them to the floor, studs and ceiling. They were awesome! Years went by and my little girls turned into wonderful teenagers. A few months ago I decided that they needed separate beds, but with the 3 dressers in the room there wasn't enough room for regular beds. I measured everything and found that there was enough room in there for loft beds.

So one nice boring Friday we took the bunk beds apart. On that Saturday we cut everything and put them back as loft beds on Sunday. In all it only took about 8 hours...
The girls even helped.
 My wonderful husband didn't mark the wood as we took it apart like I wanted so they didn't all line up just right. I also had originally suggested that 4*4's get used on the corners, that was shot down at first then it became a wonderful idea...

Since we put the beds in Katie has actually slept in her bed every night!!!


Each girl decorated her side of the room how ever she wanted. Kris is the minamlist...


While Katie loves her 1 Direction...
