Purchasing bunk beds has been a topic of conversation among hubby and I, since we have twin toddlers that share a smallish room. It really is the best way to maximize space when you have more than one child sharing a room.
Yet when browsing local stores for bunk beds, I didn’t really like any of them. They were all too boring, too ‘campish’, especially for my little Twincesses.
I found the ultimate {The.Best} bunk bed ideas ever, online. The ones I covet the most require a contractor and knocking downwalls, which is a task in itself. Yet, the final looks? Nothing short of drool-worthy!
Hunny, where’s the sledgehammer?

01/07/2012 at 5:03 pmI love these ideas, how very cool. Especially the one with the two blue chairs. I can dream!
Tammi says
01/08/2012 at 9:47 amThat look is just so complete, isn’t it? The chairs really set the mood of that room

MissT says
01/07/2012 at 8:22 pmImagine how awesome that would be as a kid to have that in your bed room! You would be the coolest kid on the block.
Tammi says
01/08/2012 at 9:48 amI used to want a canopy bed when I was little {never did get one}, but can you imagine the fun sleepovers kids would have!?
You wouldn’t have to worry about them not staying in the room to play!

01/08/2012 at 5:16 amKids love bunk beds. Those are something else Wow!!! Really like the first picture.
Tammi says
01/08/2012 at 9:49 amI agree Josee, the first is my favorite of the bunch!
Debbie W says
01/08/2012 at 7:21 amI like the first one. It looks more like a loft. That way you have maybe a itty bitty bit of space to plant your feet up there, which means it’s easier to make the bed. Something to think about. The top bunk bed is the hardest bed to make. Been there, done that.
Tammi says
01/08/2012 at 9:50 amOh yes, making those beds is another story.
The first picture – I love the ceilings of that room, it was made for these bunks!
Emma says
01/08/2012 at 8:02 amI will need a BIGGER new house to accommodate those bunk beds, lol. Those rooms are bigger than my living room.
My son (only 1) told me he wants to sleep in bunk bed 2 years ago. I was in budget & got the one in Walmart ($269 then but you need extra slate for the mattress support) Truth is he NEVER sleeps on the upper bunk (my son is a scary cat) he’s afraid to sleep there & climb down from the ladder (he was 10)
Tammi says
01/08/2012 at 9:51 amWhat about for sleepovers, Emma? Do you think the bunks come in handy for those times?
Emma says
01/08/2012 at 6:10 pmBoth the friend & my son didn’t want to go upper bunk, end up one sleep lower bunk & the other air mattress on floor.
Lana Thompson says
01/08/2012 at 8:27 amMy husband built some bunk beds for our two boys when they were 1 1/2 and 2 1/2, and they accomodate the crib mattresses, have railings, a ladder with flat steps vs ladder wrungs, and it bolts to the wall. And, as we have moved 3 times in about 3 years, he built them to be easily collapsed with the removal of some key components, however they are strong enough to support 3 boys who are about 4 years old sitting on them. And it only cost him about $40 to make them. I have to say they are pretty awesome!
Tammi says
01/08/2012 at 9:52 amWow Lana, you married a pretty creative and handy man there! Built with sense and love, I like that! And wow, what a frugal cost! It’s true, bunks can be costly, maybe he should go into business!!
Doreen Riopel says
01/08/2012 at 8:53 amI love how you can fit so many beds in one room. These are gorgeous.
Tammi says
01/08/2012 at 9:53 amI know Doreen, we hardly have room for a dresser for the twins with their bed in there, bunks would really make sense for them. Even though, Mommy’s scared about falls….
But still, would be nice to fit a couple more pieces in that room and make it more functional.
alissa apel says
01/08/2012 at 9:17 amI like 4 and 5 from the top! What do your kid’s rooms look like?
Mica and Isaak’s rooms are here: http://theapels.blogspot.com/2011/08/tour-of-kids-rooms.html I spent way too long on them. They were fun though.
Deb Dorrington says
01/08/2012 at 12:32 pmI so love these rooms, the first and second are my fave, but I must say I would have loved any of them when I was a child. My kids had the old clunky Maple ones, sturdy and comfy but certainly not attractive like these…lol.
Tammi says
01/08/2012 at 2:35 pmAgreed, Deb!
Monica says
01/08/2012 at 12:38 pmLove the bunkbeds in the first picture…wish I was a kid living in that room!!
Tammi says
01/08/2012 at 2:35 pmI know, Monica – the kid in me is all over that first set of bunks too – love it!
erin m. says
01/08/2012 at 5:10 pmi want these…and the houses they come in, haha
Bernice says
01/08/2012 at 7:01 pmThese room are so cool my boys would love having a room like one of these .. and my 4 & 6 year old girls would probably love them too
Patti P(Fluffs Enough) says
01/08/2012 at 7:07 pmI need enough rooms for every one of these!
Terra Heck says
01/08/2012 at 10:40 pmWow, those are all beautiful and creative! I especially like the bunk beds in the first photo.
Hailey says
01/09/2012 at 12:44 amBrent built the kids their bunk beds…the boringish camping style you mentioned – though I love them…but not nearly enough as I love the ones you have posted…And the room next to theirs would be perfect…..
**planning**

Owen says
10/17/2013 at 9:29 pmHowever history has shown that if you don’t have to worry about winterizing it.
While most places hot tubs 8 man recommend changing the filter every one or
two people. A hot tub, from ModernSpa can be also
good choice for you, do a wet test first and check out its reliability and comfort.
Always envisioned you lounging in the hot tub they are a cheaper line.
