For my daughter's 9th birthday, the only thing she wanted was a "beachy" loft bed. So you know I had to make it happen. But how do you make a loft bed "beachy" you say? Well we started by coming up with a design list of must-haves. Here's what we came up with:
-"Beachy" / Coastal Theme
-Mature enough that she will get many years of use
-Not damaging to floor / existing trim
-Plenty of storage & play area
-Electrical for outlets and lights
As this list came together, I quickly realized that this wasn't going to be a weekend project. Nevertheless, while this project took longer than expected and cost more than projected, I think we nailed it and I will say that it was well worth it!
