The starting point of any bedroom is a good bed. Not only do you need something that lets you enjoy your peaceful slumber in warmth and comfort, but since the bed acts as the focal point of the room, you need something that looks really good too. Unfortunately, big, beautiful beds can get very expensive, so if you can find the time to put your hands to work, then you can build your very own gorgeous customized bed for a fraction of the price.
Simple Wooden Frame
I really love the look of this bed frame because it seems very solid and sturdy. That headboard and the integrated light system is what really impresses me the most, though! And can you believe, the entire project only cost about $300 to make?

Floating Bed
This platform bed uses such a clever design that it truly looks as if the bed is hovering like some sort of alien space craft. Very futuristic! The indented platform isn’t visible when looking at it from a regular standing up position, and the lights underneath really just add to the drama.

Frame with Wooden Headboard

Stately King Bed
This bed is big, boastful, in-your-face, and it’s absolutely gorgeous! It looks like something that belongs in a farm house or beach house with that rustic wood. You could, however, stain it a much darker color if you want more of a modern twist.

Ikea Cabinet Bed
Ok, so this is going to sound strange, but trust that it’s pure genius. Someone came up with the brilliant idea to use doorless cabinets as the basis for a bed frame. This means that not only do you have minimum building work, but you now also have extra storage hidden away under there.

Platform with Drawers
Storage seems to be an issue with me since I’m quite a hoarder, so I’m always looking for helpful storage ideas to keep my clutter organized. This platform bed is the answer to all my problems since it has six large pull-out drawers that I can pack full of shoes and everything else that takes up space.
