Custom Twin/Full Bunk


I don't build a lot of bunk beds This is because there are imports in similar styles out on the market. For this one I had a special request. This customer like the style but did not want screws and hardware showing on the end panels that attached the side rails. There was also a need for some drawers.
The drawers have a raised panel look and the ladder had to stop at the lower side rail to keep from interfering with the operation of the drawers.
This one was finished in October 2012 and we used maple wood, dyed and stained to match a cappuccino color.

Yankee Baseball Daybed


This is a new design of my Yankees baseball bed. This customer wanted a daybed with a trundle and drawers and wanted to know if we could come up with something.  We completed it in September 2012
We used the large headboard that is normally cutout for the Baseball Loft bed and changed up the end panels. I originally use two foot boards for the sides, but I did not like the look of it, so I made new panels that had a swooping design.
The color is the true Yankee blue color that we had matched.
You can watch us build this live from our Current Projects page at wwbeds.com  and poggyskids.com  Also at the site photographs are posted each day of our work.

Boat Bed

This is a boat bed that was built in September 2012. One of it's great features is a toybox at the bow (front).  It is a large toy box.  Some of the other features is the pull-out trundle. The trundle was actually modified to be use as a large toy box. We added sides and a bottom. Both of these can be removed if the customer decides they would like to go back to using it as a trundle.
The portholes were painted in a copper faux finish. I think that the copper went well with the black.

Special Edition Murphy Bed Locker




This is a cross between my Locker Murphy bed and my Special Edition Baseball bed. Instead of just having it all painted up we used some natural maple in parts. We also had the headboard lettering carved out and then repainted the recesses.
The headboard was very time consuming. Each letter or number recess was hand panted.

Vintage Locker Murphy Bed Loft

What could this be? Is it a set of lockers? A bunk loft? A Murphy wall bed? It is all the above!

This is a loft style bed with a murphy bed added to the lower section. It is based off a bed I built in the past, my baseball loft murphy bed. It is similar in the design, the theme just changed.

The inspiration for this one came from Pottery Barns Vintage lockers. We were after a beach/weathered look. To achieve this on the finish, I used a glazing technique to give the paint that old antique look. I started with a white undercoater and glazed it with a brown stain.

 Other features added were the handles on the end ladders and the guardrail. The guardrail is a rope design backed with netting. The murphy bed is a full size horizontal. When folded up it take us the room of a twin bunk and allows a little more play room under the bed.  More info on beds like this can be found out our web site WWBeds Custom Furniture or it's sister site Poggy's Kids
