Buying a Small Double Loft Bed

If you're looking for a small double loft bed, this Scandinavian pine design fits the bill. The frame is fitted with safety rails to keep children safe. The space underneath can be used as a bookcase or desk.

Decorate your loft walls with shelves to display your child's work photographs, family photos, and inspirational quotes. Create a cozy reading space by putting a comfortable armchair and a floor cushion nearby.

Space-Saving

Loft beds are a great solution for bedrooms with small spaces. In contrast to regular beds that occupy floor space they are built on a platform which is elevated above the ground, and leave space underneath for other furniture like tables and dressers. They also offer more storage options for items like toys, books, and electronics. This type of bed is ideal for rooms with low ceilings, where it's difficult to install an old-fashioned bed without sacrificing headroom.

This basic wood loft bed from Amazon is a great choice for those looking to add a little extra functionality to their sleeping space.

It can also be constructed with bookcases or a desk.

Most loft beds can be constructed of either oak or pine depending on the style you choose. Pine is a lightweight soft wood that can take staining and paint very well. It's inexpensive and offers an attractive, rustic appearance that complements any home. Oak is a more durable and more expensive wood that is typically finished with an anti-scratch lacquer. It's not as strong as pine, but it still is effective in keeping away stains and scratches.

This loft bed is different from other double loft beds that have separate ladders on each side. Instead it has a staircase shared in the middle. This helps to save space and creates an area of separation between the two workspaces beneath. It is also easier to reach the beds when there are two people in the same room whether they are sleeping or working.

This loft bed can be turned into a complete entertainment set-up by adding a desk, shelf, and a sofa when you're feeling inspired.

It's as simple as connecting the furniture pieces to get it ready for use. The plans include a cut list as well as construction drawings which make the process simpler.

Fun

If you're looking to gift your child a loft bed that is functional and stylish, pick a bed that has lots of design. Consider a twin Asten bunk bed that has a desk and armoire. It also has drawers and a hidden-hole. It's as elegant and elegant as it does practical. This elegant option from Monarch Hill features a full-size bed on the top, with a slat structure that eliminates the need for a boxspring, a ladder and a safety rail to keep your kid or teen sleeping in a safe manner.

Add some log wall decorations to complete the look and your child will love spending time in the cabin, especially in cold or snowy weather.

Making a loft into a tent or a hideaway is another way to make it more enjoyable. Create a small window as well as curtains to make your child feel as if they are in their own space. This is a great option for kids who love to go camping, or need an area to be safe from their bedroom at night.

You can also convert your loft bed double into a cabin that reflects your child's favorite activity or pastime. If your child loves basketball or baseball, you can get a bunk bed themed to sports with the logos of their favorite teams as well as colors. Fill it with action figures, dolls or other toys that relate to their passion and they'll be happy hanging out there.

Some loft beds come with built-in slides that are ideal for dorm Room playing or getting out of bed. This model by Donco comes with an incline and an inflatable slide and allows your child to decide how they would like to go down from the top.

Another idea for a loft bed is to purchase two perpendicular ones and separate them with curtains, like Willow and Jade Interiors did here. This is an excellent method to give each child their own space while giving them the chance to be social or have sleepovers with friends. It also allows them to change between quiet time and playing time with ease by simply hanging the curtain. If you decide to go with this option ensure you purchase heavy curtains that can endure the pressure of daily use. It's worth the investment because they'll last longer than cheaper alternatives. You'll be glad you did. You can even purchase a set of curtains in different colors so your kids can switch things up from time to time. Be sure to take measurements of the space prior to purchasing curtains to make sure they fit.
