Space-Saving

shorty loft bed beds are a great option for small bedrooms. Unlike regular beds that take up the floor they are built on a platform that is high above the ground, and free up room underneath for other furniture such as tables and dressers. They also provide more storage solutions for things like books, toys, and electronics. This kind of bed is also suitable for rooms with low ceilings where it is difficult to place an old-fashioned bed without sacrificing headroom.

This simple wood loft from Amazon is an excellent option for those who want to add some function to their sleeping space.

It is equipped with ladders for easy access to the top level and it can also be constructed with an office nook or bookcase.

Although most people prefer a traditional wood finish the bed is available in a coffee color to match any decor style.

The majority of loft beds are constructed of pine or oak depending on the design you select. Pine is a lightweight, soft wood that accepts staining and paint very well. It is a low-cost wood and has a rustic, warm look that will look great in any house. Oak is a pricey and stronger wood that is usually coated with a protective varnish. It's not as durable as pine, but it still is effective in keeping away stains and scratches.

Unlike most double loft beds, which have separate ladders on each side, this one comes with an open staircase that is centered in the middle.

If you're looking for something a bit more rugged and outdoorsy than this, you should check out the log-inspired option by 2P loft bed with sofa Bed Carlos. It has a sturdy wood frame with plenty of storage space underneath, including a closet, bookcase, and open cubbies. Include some log wall decorations to complete the look and your child will enjoy spending time in the cabin, especially during winter's cold or snowy days.

The loft can be transformed into a tent, or a hideaway is another way to make it more fun. Create a little window and drapes to allow your child to feel like they're secluded in their own private room. This is a great idea for kids who love to camp or need a safe place to escape from their room at the night.

You can also turn your double loft bed into a cabin that reflects your child's most loved hobby or pastime. For instance If they're into baseball or basketball, get a sports themed bunk bed with their favorite team's colors and logos. The bed is filled with action figures or dolls, as well as other toys related to their passion and they'll enjoy playing in the room.

Some loft beds have a built-in slide that's ideal for playing or getting out of the bed. This model by Donco includes an incline and slides which means your child can choose the way they wish to go down from the top. You can also purchase an additional slide for the 2P Loft bed Carlos made of strong metal and equipped with handrails for extra safety.

A loft bed can be made more entertaining by using two beds perpendicular to each other and separating them with a curtain. This is what Willow and Jade Interiors have done here. This is an excellent way to give each kid their own space while giving them the chance to interact with one another or host sleepovers with their friends. It also makes it simple to change between quiet time and playing time easily by simply hanging the curtain. If you opt for this method ensure you purchase thick curtains that will stand up to the rigors of heavy use. It's worth investing in them since they'll last longer than the cheaper alternatives. You'll be happy you made the right choice. You can even get curtains in different colors so that your children can switch things around from time to time. Make sure you take measurements of the space prior to purchasing curtains to ensure that they fit.
