Toddler Bed

Welcome to Day 1 of the Desire 2 Create blog! I saw this adorable toddler bed on a friend's facebook and she directed me to the website Design Sponge. I love the modern/simple look of it. The whole project could be done in a Saturday afternoon and it costs less than 50$, that is if you do one toddler bed like we did and you have a mattress. The instructions on the website are for two toddler beds, but it is easy to adapt to one. It could also be made for a twin (which is what my friend did) or a bigger size. The home decorator fabric and high loft batting was less than 20$ with JoAnn coupons so keep your eyes peeled for good deals.

We cut a small hole in the wood so that the top can be lifted up to get to storage underneath.

Ta Da! It holds tons of storage! My favorite part.
