How to build a DIY Loft Bed for $75.
This DIY bed is made from 2x4 and 2x6 construction grade lumber. If you want to get some nicer boards and save a little money you can cut these down from 2x12 boards. The bed is straightforward to assemble after all the wood parts are cut. This loft bed is great for a kid’s room but can also be a dorm loft bed where it would really take advantage of the space in a small room. Get the DIY loft bed plans and build your own!
