FJELLSE Nightstand
Materials: full bed FJELLSE, blot, piece of pine brackets, drill, saw, screwdriver
description: I needed a bed, was on a budget and hated everything about craigslist. For under $ 100, I'm a bed like that, I think looks great.
The full bed FJELLSE was on sale for $ 49. I picked it up and jumped the $ 20 lattes and got a mattress without Craigslist.
The headboard with the bed is ugly in my opinion so I wanted to cover. Live hacks to this bed style, but most of them were padded headboard. I wanted a rustic thing. Initially, I wanted to buy several wooden planks and stack them on top of each other. I found a "piece of wood 2'x 8'x1 / 4 at Home Depot and cut them down from 8 'to a few inches under 6' would be the bed length This room was $ 27.99 and listed as "shelves" on my receipt, even if it was just in the general area of the timber.
We also bought the media packaging L to be used to fix the bed headboard You can see how we did in the photo. My father was also concerned about maintaining and adding a screw on each side of the bed posts
In terms of editing, we assembled the bed as directed, adding only the piece of wood on the bed at first, after we assembled the head. We measured the box spring and mattress learn much higher on the head to place the wood too (about 12 "with a standard 9" box spring).
The unfinished pine as yells to IKEA also needed fixing (note: I originally tried to use a spray on the horrible wound spot with old stain that we have already had finished for it would have saved about $ 20 ... had this goof-up not occurred!). This has also been made days before we met because it took a while to dry in the rain. We also have not bothered coloring parts that would not show, as the median support.
I feel like the final product does not look at all IKEA!
