I guess my daughter doesn't want a  loft bed.  She was just humoring me.  What a sweetie.  She does really want a day bed, or a bed that looks like a couch.  I have found a couple cute ideas online.

This one I found on the Country Living website I could probably find two matching headboards at D.I. if I looked often enough.  I'm not sure if I like the pads on the inside.  I'm thinking some of those round pillows will work for cushioning.

This one is from the Apartment Therapy site.  It looks so easy to make and has some rustic charm.  I'm not so sure it will work for what she wants in her room though.

I want to BUILD!

I want to learn how to build a loft bed.  I think it would be fun for my daughter's room to have a loft bed with a sofa underneath because she wants a room that looks like an apartment. I really like this one I found on ohdeedoh:

I should be able to create that, right?  Just need some wood, nails, tools and paint.  Although I think I should add a safety bar so she doesn't fall off when she is rolling around in her sleep. :)

And then if I can build the loft bed I can build anything!  Well almost anything...
I am thinking gray, pink and purple for her color scheme.  With some yellow thrown in as fun little accents.  Oh when someday come's my princess will have an awesome room.  Hopefully it's before she moves off to college!

And on a side note.  I want to say Happy Birthday to my awesome hubby!  He is now one whole digit older than me (for at least a couple more months!)
