If you have space issues and can’t fit a lot of furniture in your tiny bedroom then you may just benefit from this DIY Post. As you can make your own Loft Bed without emptying your bank account. Things you would need:

Wood:
4 4″x4″x8′ trunks these are the main supports
4 2″x4″x8′ stalks (for lack of a better general word for a long piece of wood) These give the loft its shape
7 2″x3″x8′ stems You’ll use these to make braces, and also supports for the plywood bed. Read steps
15 and 16 first–you may be able to get away with only 6 stems
2 4′x8′ 1/2″ plywood

Hardware: (home despot drastically overcharges for bolts. For the love of the Flying Spagetti Monster and all his oh-so-noodly appendages, buy your bolts at your local mom-and-pop hardware store! Support small businesses and don’t get ripped off!)

8 1/2″ x 6″ bolts these hold the 2×4 stalks onto the 4×4 trunks
8 1/2″ nuts
16 1/2″ washer
