Best of PB #3: Platform Storage Bed for a College Dorm Room

By

Becky from Reinventing the Ordinary loved the look and functionality of a Pottery Barn storage bed for her daughter’s college room but needed a cheaper alternative. Surprisingly, college tuition doesn’t really leave an extra $1000 sitting in the bank for a bed! Becky created a fabulous $100 version with some beadboard, molding, and plywood that fit their needs (and budget) to perfection!

Becky was inspired by the Stratton Bed from Pottery Barn.

    Where did Becky get the bedding? That is the colors and patterns my daughter was talking about. Thanks
