DIY: Raised Bed with Expedit Bookshelves

Make your own Raised Bed with Expedit Bookshelves for Storage. It may not be the most aesthetically pleasing bed however it is functional!

Parts needed:

* 3 X Ikea Expedit Bookshelves ($90 each)
* 2 X Ikea Observator Cross Braces 393 Version ($5 each) – Be sure to select the 39″ version, not the 28″
* Queen Size Mattress
* Queen Size Bed Frame or 80″ X 58 5/8″ sheet of wood

Optional items:

* Ikea Lekman boxes ($12 each; 8 fit in each bookcase; I only put 8 Lekman boxes in the bookcase at the foot of the bed; Ikea has many storage options for the Expedit Bookcases)
* 3 X Mat Shelf Liners sized at least 15.5″ X 59″ ($5-8 each)
