Children's double bed with their own hands. Let's make a bed with our own hands ?! From us step by step instructions and information, from you - direct hands and time

Increasingly, the owners of country houses are trying to decorate the interiors of bedrooms with hand-made wooden furniture. Self-made furniture allows you to show the personal talent of a designer, to show others own feeling style, save on expensive interior items. If you want to surround yourself with stylish and high-quality furniture, then a do-it-yourself double bed is suitable for this, which is easy to make, listening to our advice.

The bed plays a huge role in the life of every person, so its choice should be approached with all responsibility. A comfortable sleeping bed will act as a guarantee healthy sleep, reliable spine support, well-being. That is why this piece of furniture can be found in every home.

Today manufacturers offer a lot of beds that are different in size, shape, material for making beds, sometimes you don't even immediately understand which one is relevant, since the choice is too huge. Therefore, for a start, let's try to understand standard sizes beds for sleep and rest. In size, they can be:

do-it-yourself single bed made of solid wood (width 80-120 cm, length 190-220 cm). This model is optimal for one person;
one-and-a-half bed made of wood with your own hands in the bedroom (width 120-160 cm, length 190-220 cm). Suitable for one person who likes to sleep freely, or for a baby to relax with his mother;
double bed made of wood with mattress (width 160-230 cm, length 200-220 cm). Models are intended for couples, such designs are comfortable and practical.

Did you decide to make a double bed with a backrest on your own? The main details in the work will be:

classic bed from a bar;
drawings that help in the preparation, manufacture of structural elements of the product;
action plan with division of operations into stages.

It is worth starting work on creating a bed with the creation of a drawing, in which all the details are carefully described with an exact indication of their dimensions. It is also required to calculate the actual amount of materials and accessories, as well as their cost. Errors at this stage of work can lead to disastrous consequences. In the best case, you will have to spend more time on additional operations, in the worst case, you will have to purchase new material to replace the damaged parts.

If there is little experience in these matters, you can use ready-made diagrams and drawings. For experienced master creating a bed for two people of a non-standard shape is not difficult. For beginners in this matter, we recommend choosing a simple rectangular shape.

Preparation of tools and necessary parts

In the process of work, you will need to purchase the following items from the nearest building materials store.

Headboard materials

The volume of materials is calculated based on the drawing of the future product, indicating the dimensions of each of essential elements... It is better to buy a little more natural wood so that it is definitely enough for the manufacture of the entire structure.

Experts in the manufacture of furniture for living quarters recommend choosing a tree High Quality without knots when making a double bed frame. The presence of a large number of knots will take a long time to grind. And save cash it is possible to purchase material for supports and lamellas of the lattice. The material for the supports can be of the second grade, it costs a little less. And for lamellas, choose the cheapest options.

If a decision is made to make a bed with a lifting mechanism made of metal, then you will need to buy materials in more, because in addition to the main frame, you should make a lifting frame for the sleeping bed. Be sure to include in the drawing and view building material, and the type of lifting mechanism.

As for the tools that are relevant for work, then you will need:

measuring tape for taking measurements of space, construction details;
circular;
special Kreg Jig set that allows you to drill holes at an angle;
electric drill for organizing holes;
adhesive composition for bonding wood surfaces;
adjustable square;
self-tapping screws (30,50,60 mm);
water-based acrylic varnish;
wood stain, which allows you to emphasize the natural beauty of the tree, improve its performance;
paint brushes wooden surfaces;
sandpaper or sander for grinding parts of a future design;
putty for wood surfaces.

The process of sawing parts for the bed must be carried out strictly following the dimensions of the drawing. Next, we will describe in stages how to make a double bed with your own hands.

Instruments

Assembly process of elements

Many people are wondering how to make a double bed with their own hands, where to start? The assembly of the future structure can be conditionally divided into stages, which will allow a more detailed description of each operation.

They begin the process of making a double bed with their own hands from wood from the main frame. It must certainly be durable, have high strength characteristics in order to serve the owners for a long time.

Using a drill, make holes in the prepared parts for fasteners with a diameter of 30 mm. Thoroughly clean the ends of the boards with sandpaper, or better with a grinder, so that there are no chipping on the surfaces. Open with wood glue in two layers, letting each dry thoroughly. At the end of the drying process of the varnish, insert the purchased self-tapping screws into the drilled holes, fastening the boards using a screwdriver or screwdriver.

If excess glue appears at the joints of the boards, they must be removed with a damp cloth. At the end of the work, check the straightness of the corners of the product with a construction square. When the frame is dry, paint it with wood stain. Modern models of double beds can be equipped with a solid or slatted bottom. The first option is made from a single sheet of plywood. To create slats for a double bed, plywood is cut into blocks of the same width.

All boards should be pre-sanded

Boards are fastened with self-tapping screws

Finished frame

Backboard

The headboard should be made for several reasons:

this decorative element enhances the beauty of the entire structure, allows you to create a cozy atmosphere in the room, gives the interior a completeness, laconic look;
it acts as a reliable protection for walls from staining, rubbing;
leaning on the headboard is always pleasant.

Often a wooden double bed has an impressive weight, so the headboard should be removable. If in the future the structure needs to be moved to another place, the back can be easily dismantled. For the back, use a furniture board made of two 6 m long boards. They are cut into pieces, which are spliced into a shield using dowels and glue. So that the holes for the dowels completely coincide, place marks on the edge of the board and punch small nails without a cap into them using pliers.

To make the sleeping area more nice looking, the headboard can be decorated different ways, overlay with foam rubber and sheathe with textiles. If you do not plan to cover the backboard with upholstery, be sure to grind it carefully so that no chipping remains on the surface. The polished surface is pleasant to touch, and poorly finished wood can cause splinters. Next, the surface is treated with a primer, opened with varnish or painted with paint to increase the protective properties of wood.

Installation of lamellas

Next, you need to make slats for the bottom of the bed. To make the process go faster, create a reference rail, according to the template of which you make the rest of the lamellas. Align the ends of the pieces by outlining the line you want to cut along. When a sufficient number of lamellas are made, they are well polished. Further, each of them is individually fixed inside the frame of the future product using self-tapping screws.

It is important to understand what level of load will fall on the lamellas. The greater the total weight of the users of the bed for two people and the mattress itself, the stronger the slats should be. Make them wide and mount them on the frame with minimal steps. If the load on the frame is minimal, then the lamellas can be made narrow and mounted further from each other.

An orthopedic mattress is placed on top of the lamellas, which is selected taking into account the peculiarities of the structure of the body, the age of its owners. Such a product for two people will allow you to get enough sleep during sleep, to restore strength.

Legs

For the manufacture of supports, use a bar with a section of 10x10 cm. From it you will need to make 6 bars 10.5 cm long, which are carefully sanded. To determine the mounting locations of the central supports, measure half a meter from the ends of the support beam. Draw straight lines down the center, and trace around the perimeter of the supports so you can drill the holes quickly and without mistakes. Installation support legs on the frame is done with a screwdriver and self-tapping screws.

If you don't have time to make supports on your own or you want to give the structure some mobility, you can choose the support wheels for it. Such details will allow you to easily move the bed for two to another place in the room. You can also pick up metal supports curvilinear shapes, original color. This will allow you to diversify the design of a standard bed made by yourself.

Leg blanks

Headboard decoration

The external aesthetics of the bed largely depends on the shape of the headboard. It can be round, square, rectangular, and also have a non-standard shape. For example, have the shape of a star, a dome. To make a custom back, you need a paper mold and an electric jigsaw.

Note that the shape of the backrest will largely determine the place of its attachment to the structure frame. It is better not to mount non-standard forms on the sleeping bed, but hang on the wall. As a result, the headboard and the bed will exist separately, but if you move the structure close to the headboard, you get a complete picture.

No less important are the materials from which the headboard is made and with which it is decorated. Suitable for expensive interiors:

genuine leather, suede - very expensive materials, therefore they are suitable for creating stylish, luxurious interiors in the bedroom;
eco-leather - this alternative demonstrates excellent performance parameters genuine leather... Eco-leather is inexpensive, practical, beautiful, therefore it is often used in furniture production;
velor, velvet are beautiful, stylish options, however, they can accumulate dust over time. Therefore, you will have to take care of such upholstery a little more often.

Material upholstery wooden frame headboard, securing the joints with construction stapler on a wooden board. If the back is of an impressive size, you can fix the upholstery material in several places on the front side. So that in the end the head of the bed looks neat, the ugly staples are covered with decorative buttons.

The use of rhinestones, Swarovski crystals allows you to decorate the headboard of a double bed, which you made yourself. From these small decorative elements, mosaics, ornaments, curved lines and patterns can be laid out. Other good options for decorating the headboard of a homemade bed for two are metal forged elements, wood carving. But it is worth remembering that when decorating a bed for two in this way, its cost increases significantly. But the finished product will be unique and unrepeatable.

When it became necessary to add another sleeping place at the dacha, it was decided at the family council that it would be a double bed. The dimensions of 1.6 by 2.0 meters were determined for a reason, but because this is a very common mattress size (in a city apartment the same) and its purchase will not cause problems. And so it turned out later.

I will make a double bed according to my drawings and of course with my own hands. Installation will be carried out directly at the installation site, having previously prepared all the details.
The article turned out to be voluminous and detailed, so be patient.

If you are going to make such a double bed with your own hands, then below you will find detailing, dimensional drawings, photographs, as well as a 3D model of this bed.

Since the project is quite complex, you need to prepare tools and materials before starting work.

Drill.
Set of drills.
Screwdriver.
A jigsaw or a hacksaw for wood.
Sander.
Building corner.

Materials (edit)

Bar 100 * 100 * 330 mm - 4 pcs. (bed legs).
Board 195 * 45 * 1690 mm - 4 pcs. (front - back board of the frame and headboard).
Board 95 * 45 * 1690 mm - 1 pc. (headboard).
Board 195 * 45 * 2000 mm - 2 pcs. (side boards of the frame).
Board 95 * 45 * 1400 mm - 2 pcs. (inner front and back boards of the frame).
Board 95 * 45 * 1800 mm - 2 pcs. (inner side boards of the frame).
Board 95 * 45 * 1910 mm - 1 pc. (inner longitudinal board of the frame).
Bed lamella (820 * 63 * 8 mm bent plywood) - 24 pcs.
Attached lath holders (for lamellae 63 * 8 mm) - 48 pcs.
Birch dowel 10x50 (30pcs)
Steel corner 50 * 50 mm - 12 pcs.
Self-tapping screws 5 * 80 mm - 150 pcs. (for assembling bed parts).
Self-tapping screws 3.5 * 35 mm - 50 pcs. (for attaching steel corners).
Self-tapping screws 3.5 * 12 mm - 100 pcs. (for attaching lat holders).
Joiner's glue.
Wood putty.

Based on materials:

As a result, I bought 2 boards 195 * 45 * 6000 mm and 2 boards 95 * 45 * 6000 mm. All boards are dry and planed.
The cut to size was made on the spot in the store (for a fee), so all the materials fit into the trunk of my car with the rear seats folded.
As a result, I "killed" two birds with one stone: they sawed the boards exactly to size, and saved on delivery.
A piece of timber 100 * 100 mm remained with me after the construction of the barn and that is why I decided to use it to make the legs of the bed. You can use any other material as legs.

Lamellas (armor), as well as lath holders, look for in specialized stores or online stores, in ordinary building hypermarkets they are rare and if there is, then in a small assortment.

By size:

Using the basic dimensions for the desired size of the mattress (I have 2000 * 1600 * 180 mm), you can change the dimensions for those that are convenient for you. For example, the height of the legs of the bed or the height of the side boards.
The only thing that is not worth it is to reduce the thickness of the inner longitudinal board (45 mm), which divides the bed in half. this value is determined by the seat of the lateral holders on one side and the other.

Assembling the bed: diagrams and sizes

So, if all the tools are prepared, and the materials are cut to size, then you can start assembling the bed. And let's start, of course, with the base frame.

Frame fabrication

We start the assembly from the main boards and legs of the bed, fastening them together with self-tapping screws.

With the help of clamps, we fix the legs to the side boards. We drill holes in the boards - the diameter of the drill must correspond to the diameter of the self-tapping screw. Do not forget to countersink the holes for the screw head.

The side and center boards should be fixed 10 mm lower, because they will be equipped with lamella holders. The photo below shows why this should be done.

Before assembly, I smeared all the parts with wood glue and for reliability (reliability is never superfluous) I reinforced all the corners in the joints of the bed frame with steel corners. The photo below shows.

Under the middle board for reinforcement, I made and installed a stand-leg from a piece of timber. You can use any other design, for example, make boards from scraps or buy a ready-made cylindrical one from metal, if you find the right size.

Puttying and sanding the frame

Now that the bed frame is, in principle, ready, you can begin to ennoble the appearance, namely, to putty the mounting holes, as well as other visible wood defects. To do this, use a special wood filler.

Apply the first layer of putty, trying to fill the holes as much as possible, leave to dry following the manufacturer's recommendations on the packaging.

Important! Do not try to putty everything the first time problem areas- it still won't work. Correctly putty should be done in 2-3 stages, with intermediate drying and abrasive treatment.

Sand the dried filler with a coarse abrasive such as P80. I used an orbital sander with Velcro abrasive discs. You can sand with a piece of sandpaper on a flat bar, but this is more laborious.

Blow off the remaining dust, apply a second layer of putty and repeat the drying-sanding step.

Finally, we grind the entire surface of the frame to a pleasant smoothness. First with abrasive P80 and then with finer abrasive P120-180. There was a lot of dust, of course ...

While the putty dries, we don't waste time - you can start making the headboard, if you need it, of course. Below I will tell you how I did it.

Assembling the backboard board

Since the double bed turned out to be quite heavy, I decided to make the backrest removable, in case the bed needs to be moved to another room.

For the headboard, you can take a ready-made furniture board, or you can do it yourself. I bought two six-meter boards and from the leftovers, just three trims were obtained for making the back (they are in the list of materials above).

I decided to splice three boards into a shield using dowels and glue. In order for the holes for the dowels to match perfectly, I applied the following "trick" - having marked the centers of the holes on the edge of the board, I punched nails into them without a cap.
To make all the carnations stick out at the same height, hammer them in with pliers as in the photo below.

Aligning the second board from above along the edges, he tapped it with a mallet on top and received reciprocal dents on it.
To drill holes for the dowels to a certain depth, I glued red electrical tape to the drill so that it could be seen.

Having prepared the holes (cleaned of sawdust and cut off the burrs), I put the dowels on the glue (pictured below). Having missed the mating edge with wood glue, I drive the second board into place with the help of a mallet.
The same operation must be done with the third board of the headboard.

Due to the lack of wide clamps (I will definitely need to buy), I am smart and with the help of a car jack (used for laying floors) I squeeze the shield of three boards in the doorway and wait a couple of hours until the glue dries.

After gluing, I send the board for trimming and grinding. The most appropriate place for this dusty job - the yard.

Having cut off the upper corners, I grind with an orbital, abrasive P80. By grinding, I remove small steps at the joints of the boards and sharp corners.

The result is a pretty decent backboard for the headboard.

It remains to put the back in place and fix it. To do this, I do the same operation with dowels, only without glue.

Installation of lamellas

Since the length of the lamellas exceeds the required one, they should be cut into the desired size.

Putting lat-holders on the ends of the lamellas, we fix them to the support boards with self-tapping screws 3.5 * 12 mm. The distance between the lamellas in my case is 92 mm.

Currently, furniture stores offer a wide variety of furniture, including wooden beds. But the prices, frankly, bite. There are at least three reasons for making a wooden bed with your own hands. This is cost savings, an opportunity to realize your design ideas, as well as irreplaceable pride in the fact that he himself made a useful, beautiful and necessary thing.

Making furniture with your own hands is not an easy task, it requires a certain skill, knowledge and experience, but you should not be afraid to implement it. If the necessary tool is available, purchased necessary materials and there is a firm decision that a wooden bed will be made with your own hands, then you should get down to work without putting it on the back burner.

Required tool

Making a wooden bed with your own hands requires tools such as a circular table saw, an ordinary and rubber hammer, a grinder, a square, a chisel, a tape measure, a screwdriver, an electric drill. Materials are also needed: wood stain, varnish, wood putty, screws, sandpaper, wood glue.

If there is no circular table saw and grinder, then you can do without them - a hacksaw and a bar with sandpaper... But it will be difficult to achieve professional quality wood processing. It seems that if a wooden bed is made independently with your own hands, and then some other piece of furniture, then you will get a taste and try to purchase these rather expensive, but important tools for high-quality wood processing. Then you will see for yourself how much faster and better your work will be with their use.

Mattress

The main part of the bed is the mattress. Therefore, you have a choice:

Purchase a mattress of the right size and characteristics in the retail network (now a great many ready-made products of this kind are offered) and make a bed for its size;
- first make a bed, and then order a mattress of the required size for it.

Both options are eligible for implementation depending on your personal preference. In addition, there is an option to make the mattress yourself. But in this article we will not dwell on it.

In any case, it should be borne in mind that the size of the space for the mattress in the bed frame should be 1-2 centimeters larger (both in width and length) than the size of the mattress. This is due to the fact that it must fit freely in its box, and when it is loaded, it necessarily expands somewhat to the sides.

Another feature: it is advisable to arrange the bed for the mattress so that it protrudes from the frame by 4-8 cm and does not move when using the bed.

Drawing

So, your goal is to make a piece of furniture such as a wooden bed with your own hands. The drawings you need to achieve your goal are easy to find in specialized literature. Much depends on your design solutions, after all, a bed made with your own hands should differ from the purchased ones by some kind of "zest". But this is a master's business. We will consider a conventional model consisting of legs and a frame. We agree on its size with the size of the mattress, as indicated above.

The width of the bed depends on the number of berths and the degree of freedom you wish. Usually a single bed has a bed width of 90 cm, a double bed - 170-200 cm. The length of the bed for an adult is from 170 to 220 cm. The height of the frame is 30-50 cm. You set the specific dimensions yourself, based on your preferences, height and others. parameters.

Lumber

To complete the frame of a large double bed, you will need:

timber 10 x 10 cm, length 2.6 m;
timber 5 x 5 cm, length 2.6 m - 2 pcs.;
boards 2.5 x 7.5 cm 2 m long - about 12 pcs.;
boards 5 x 15 cm, length 2.6 m - 5 pcs.

Choose the type of wood yourself. Beech, oak, mahogany, walnut are suitable for making a bed. But this wood is expensive. The most suitable and inexpensive option is pine.

Manufacturing

Wooden bed, made by hand, must be durable and reliable. We start manufacturing from the legs. We cut off from a bar with a section of 10 x 10 cm two bars equal in length to the height of the bed, for the rear legs, we cut the remaining part into two parts of the same length - for the legs at the head. We mark on these parts the places of the grooves where the longitudinal boards of the frame and the transverse boards for attaching the legs will be inserted. The size of the cutouts is 15 x 5 cm. Make sure that the grooves are perpendicular to the length of the bars. We process the upper part of the legs - we remove a 1 cm chamfer at the end of the bars.

We calculate the length and width of the bed. The length is equal to the length of the mattress plus 7 cm. The width is equal to the width of the mattress plus 12 cm. Cut off from the boards 5 x 15 cm two parts with a length equal to the length of your bed, and three parts with a length equal to its width. We carefully grind the surfaces of the legs and frame parts. We assemble the frame, starting from the transverse sides of the bed, and then connecting them with longitudinal boards. We fix it with wood glue and fix it with screws 8-10 cm long.

To the inner part of the longitudinal sides of the frame, we attach the base for the transverse boards with screws. It is cut from a bar with a section of 5 x 5 cm. They must be fastened at such a height of the longitudinal boards of the frame so that, taking into account the transverse boards laid on them, the mattress bed is deepened by at least 2-3 cm. 2.5 x 7.5 cm, cut to fit the inner width of the frame. They must be distributed evenly along the length of the frame and fixed with screws to the base.

An alternative way of fastening these boards, which gives greater structural strength, is to fasten the transverse boards of the mattress base not horizontally on the base bars, but vertically. In this case, you can do without bars with a cross section of 5 x 5 cm, and fasten with metal corners, as shown in the figure on the right.

Final steps

So, the bed frame is assembled. The surfaces should be carefully sanded with a sander, the places where the surface was damaged can be treated with wood putty, allowed to dry and sanded again. After sanding, remove the dust with a dry cloth and vacuum cleaner (do not use a damp cloth - the surface will lose its smoothness). After that, treat the surfaces with a stain, you can dry it several times between layers to obtain the desired darkness and color saturation. Then the surfaces can be varnished (matt or glossy - of your choice). To obtain a high-quality surface, the varnish must be applied in three layers.

Put the mattress back and your bed is ready.

To give your bed a unique look, you can customize it by complementing the frame with headboards of your design.

Use clamps when attaching parts to glue. For the manufacture of backs, you can use solid pine, chipboard or MDF sheets with a thickness of 30 mm. To make the backs decorative and convex, they can be covered with a layer of foam rubber up to 15 mm thick, attached with a construction stapler, and draped with a cloth. This is how an exquisite wooden bed is made with your own hands.

Photos of options for designer beds made by craftsmen and amateurs can be found in large numbers in special literature. Above are just a few examples. They can lead you to your own ideas for making a bed made with your own hands, a unique look.

DIY wooden bunk bed

The photo also shows examples of bunk beds. Such designs are very convenient to save space in the room. The special meaning of making them with your own hands is that in the retail network there is no such variety of them as ordinary beds, and it is much more difficult to buy the option you need. These beds are very comfortable for teenagers.

There is a great benefit from having a wooden baby bed made by you. It is easier to do with your own hands than for an adult - after all, it does not require special strength and durability. And according to the manufacturing technology, it differs in size and in that it is necessary to complete the backs and side parts that protect the child from falling out of bed.

We hope that the material given in the article on the topic "Do-it-yourself wooden bed" will give you the determination to do this work and will benefit your family.

There is no more important piece of furniture in modern apartment than a bed. A person needs to rest after a hard day at work, and the bed can help with this. Of course, choosing a bed is not an easy task, and often just impossible. If, for some reason, choosing a bed for a pleasant stay did not work out, you can always cope on your own. The following will describe how to make a bed with your own hands.

Views

First, it is worth noting that the appearance, size and materials from which the bed will be made completely depend on the imagination and financial capabilities of the person assembling it. The options are different: from a simple single wooden bed to a large double bed, made in the form of a spaceship, decorated with various elements. The most common options can be identified.

A simple, most familiar model, chosen by many precisely because of the simplicity of execution. Four legs, two lateral fixings on the sides, two backs and a slatted bottom. In a word - a classic.

A further step in modern bed-making was the equipping of their products with boxes - for storing various things in them, from bed linen to some personal items. Almost any bed can be equipped with boxes, even after the end of its assembly.

Today transforming beds are gaining popularity. As the name implies, such a bed can be turned into a completely different piece of furniture with a slight movement of the hand. It allows you to save a lot free space in the apartment.

There are also a lot of transformation options, and here are the main ones:

Wardrobe bed... The frame of such beds is often made of light, but strong metals that can not deform under constant stress during sleep, as well as when stored in a folded state. The bed itself is vertical structure with three walls, built-in drawers and a lifting mechanism on which the frame is installed.

When folded, the cabinet can be closed both with the bottom of the frame and with special doors that open during sleep. The big disadvantage of this design is the limited number of things that can be placed in the drawers of the cabinet. These will not be used very often. However, the place that will help to save such a bed most often covers this minus.

Bed-table... Most often, this type of transformation is used in families with children attending school. The size of the table (and the bed that comes out of it) is very limited, and it is quite difficult for an adult to enjoy a pleasant sleep. To strengthen the entire structure, a furniture wall with cabinets and shelves is used, into which a table is mounted, the distant part of which turns into a bed.

Perhaps, armchair-bed is the most common type in most apartments sliding beds without frame. Such products are also called frameless. An additional place to sleep for one person, as well as a comfortable chair the rest of the time, is better than you can imagine. Previously, such an armchair was an integral part of a set with a sofa, but today, due to the growing popularity of apartment decoration in the style of minimalism, the fashion for such products is rapidly disappearing.

Pouf bed... The same transforming bed, but without armrests and backrest. Modern folding bed with quality fillings and spring blocks... This option is suitable for almost any apartment, since this product takes up very little space, folds into bed in just seconds and is ideal for sleeping.

Folding horizontal products can be considered a separate type of beds that can be made by hand. Such models differ from transformers in that they do not turn into some separate piece of furniture, but are folded with the help of a special mechanism into a furniture wall, into which almost everything necessary can be additionally built.

Floating beds are the squeak of modern fashion. They, of course, do not float, but due to the original organization of the elements that hold the bed, it seems as if nothing is holding it at all. The decision to make and install such a model in your apartment is quite daring, but at the same time it is extremely interesting.

So many different options decorating the space under the bed. There are lighting, shimmering with all the colors of the rainbow and creating the effect of romance and mystery, and various rugs that turn the room into a soft, pleasant room. There are many options, just connect your imagination.

The last variety worth talking about will be hanging beds... They look very beautiful and truly unique, although it will be easier to make such a bed even with your own hands than other pieces of furniture. The main condition for using this type of bed is the ability to allocate enough large space, since the suspension mechanism tends to swing with a small amplitude.

Determine the size

When making something with your own hands, you need to take into account a lot, a lot of things. When choosing a bed, very important factor will be its size. Of course, the size also depends on a variety of nuances.

The first nuance is the need for a certain number of sleeping places in the room. If the room allows, then you can provide it with a bed of absolutely any size. Of course, many make classic singles and doubles. So, the following nuance emerges.

For almost any bed made by yourself, you need to choose a mattress, which should very clearly fit in size to the size of the bed. This is a very important choice, as the wrong mattress can be a guarantee bad sleep leading to various nervous disorders, psychosis, as well as problems with the human skeleton. At the present time, mattresses are made in the following size ranges:

90 × 200;
120 × 200;
140 × 200;
180 × 200;
160 × 200;
80 × 190;

180 × 80;
90 × 190;
70 × 160;
120 × 180;
150 × 200;
90 × 180;
170 × 80.

Focusing on this dimensional grid, it is worth calculating the size of the future bed. Of course, everything should be done as carefully as possible. There shouldn't be any inaccuracies.

Mattress base options

Having decided on the dimensions, you can proceed to the choice of such important detail beds as a base for a mattress. Yes, of course, you can do without a mattress, replacing it with a non-removable filler of the same chair-beds and similar furniture, but at home it is extremely difficult to do this, therefore, most often the beds are made under the mattress.

They are like this:

Today it is already considered a relic of the past, but in some places you can still see a flat base. It consists of boards hammered together to form wooden shield, on which the mattress is laid. This design has advantages (compared to more modern options) practically no, but there are a lot of disadvantages.

Slatted bottom... The most common base option. Such a product is sold in almost any store and can be replaced with a slight movement of the hand. It consists of several bending strips (lamellas) made of different materials (most often wood is used), placed at an equal small distance from each other and laid on the frame. It fits directly into the mattress niche.

There are options with shock absorbers that automatically distribute weight throughout the mattress, and products without them, designed for light loads. If something happens to the lamellas, as mentioned above, they can be replaced even one at a time.

Orthopedic... At such a bottom, there is always metal carcass- the pipe that holds the entire structure. Lamellas at such a base bend better - due to a special manufacturing method associated with gluing the material from which the parts are made. The so-called lateral holders, made of plastic and designed to hold the lamellas, are attached to the frame.

Plastic... Such bases are quite different from all previous options in that they rely on plastic springs, which allow to provide better elasticity of the frame and the ability to control the level of rigidity of the berth. Of course, this option is also more expensive, but its orthopedic component makes one think a hundred times about whether it is worth saving on health.

Features of the metal product

When choosing various metals as the main materials for making a bed, you should make sure that the selected material will be as strong as possible and capable of withstanding heavy loads. Today beds made of metal are even cheaper than their wooden counterparts. Most often, for the manufacture of the frame are used shaped pipes that are easier to work with. Buying them is also quite simple.

As in any business, the manufacture of a metal bed frame is fraught with various difficulties. At home, for example, it is almost impossible to make such products, because it is necessary to have a rather specific tool for cutting, processing and welding metal structures. However, all efforts will be justified, since in the end you will get a bed that will serve faithfully for many years. It is possible that even more than one generation.

It should also be borne in mind that the metal bed:

Has more weight than analogues.
It is often not demountable, so the place for installation must be chosen wisely.
Due to joints and poorly processed welds, it can damage interior elements, the floor, and also cause injury to both children and adults.

You can even make a bed from polypropylene pipes, which will be much cheaper, more convenient to compose, but at the same time less durable. Such structures are not designed for heavy weight, and it is recommended to use them only for the manufacture of baby beds. Of course, no one forbids making an adult bed, but this is fraught with its rapid deformation, destruction - and just a bad dream.

Popular materials

Having decided on the size, frame and base for the mattress, it is worth thinking about another very important element... About the material from which all the previous elements will be made. Of course, wood will be the most environmentally friendly, visually pleasing and aesthetically correct choice, but its cost can scare off many craftsmen.

If the price is not the main thing for you, then you should pay attention to the fact that you need to choose only the highest quality wood species for the bed, such as oak, beech, ash, mahogany, birch and others. The materials must be well dried and free from the slightest cracks. Of course, there should be no knots either. These can be boards or bars, fastened with a special glue - in order to obtain the so-called glued boards. When the boards are ready, they are coated with a special water-based varnish that will preserve their appearance and protect them from moisture for many years.

The most difficult type of tree to understand is aspen... For some reason, it is this tree that many masters (and simple people) are associated with various superstitions, which differ so much that it is extremely difficult for an unprepared person to understand this, and often impossible.

Of course, this tree species is famous not only for superstitions. Even the most skilled connoisseurs cannot decide what time of year is the best time to cut the aspen for further processing. Some say that this is the end of spring, others prefer the end of summer. In general, everything is very ambiguous.

The most popular and cheapest material today is becoming PVC - or polyvinyl chloride... This material is a colorless plastic, very convenient for processing and further use. It has average characteristics in terms of price-quality ratio, which is why it is so popular, however, experts say that polyvinyl chloride, when heated, emits dangerous fumes that can harm human health.

Approximately at the same level of popularity with PVC is MDF - or fine fraction... The name, of course, sounds rather unusual, but in reality these are just plates made by the method of high pressure (from medium density wood fibers).

MDF has a rather obvious disadvantage. Of course, it comes about a very bad combination with water. Too much high humidity for such a material is destructive, since dry compressed fibers swell, destroying the original structure of the board, as well as the paintwork, which greatly affects the appearance and the possibility of further operation of the product as a whole.

As mentioned above, in addition to wood and plastic, beds are also used various metals , from simple sheet iron to gold and platinum. The features of this choice are described in the corresponding section.

How to make a two-tier model at home?

It may seem that making a bunk bed is not very necessary for most people, but for families raising two or more children, such a model is a real salvation. Of course, if there is a separate children's room, then you can put a couple of beds for each baby, but is it worth cluttering up the extra space that can be used for wall bars, for example.

Wooden

Such a model is the simplest of all possible, so almost any (even a beginner) master can make it. These beds are called classic. Such furniture consists of only 11 necessary elements:

vertical racks - 4 pcs.;
pads for vertical posts - 4 pcs.;
drawers - 4 pcs.;
longitudinal strips for frame boards - 4 pcs.;
headboard and footboard upper panels - 4 pcs.;
central planks of the headboard and footboard - 4 pcs.;
stair railings - 1 pc .;
stair steps - 3 pcs.;
guardrails - 4 pcs.;
slats for the base of the mattress - 24 pcs.;
end boards supporting frame- 4 things.

First you need to install the headboard and footboard. To do this, the corresponding upper and central strips are attached to the vertical posts at the required level.
Then the drawers are installed in special grooves, which are attached with self-tapping screws.
After installing the structure, you can start fixing the railing of the staircase and its steps.
We can say that the assembly is complete. It remains only to additionally process all the joints in order to avoid the appearance of burrs and chips, as well as to install the fence slats on both beds and lay the cross slats to support the mattress.

How to assemble a pull-out podium bed?

The podium bed is one of the varieties of transformers, however, this furniture differs from them in that it does not turn itself into another piece of furniture, but when folded becomes part of the room as a whole. The podium is an artificial elevation that serves as the floor in the room.

When you are going to start assembling, you need to realize that the manufacture of such a complex structure - albeit very practical solution but at the same time this kind of work is very difficult. To install such furniture, you should contact a specialist.

If the services of a specialist are not needed, then here are some assembly tips:

First, you need to draw a sketch of the future podium - along with a built-in bed. To do this, you need to know as accurately as possible the dimensions of the room, the height of the bed frame, its width and length, the height of the mattress that will be used for sleeping, as well as the height of the wheels with which the bed will roll out of its "storage".

Instead of wheels, you can use a special mechanism, but its installation must also be taken into account in the calculations, since its parts make the bed somewhat wider. In no case should you choose the height of the bed frame close to the opening from which it will be removed, in order to avoid getting stuck and other problems with operation.

As soon as the sketch is finished, everything is measured to the nearest millimeter, it is necessary to start choosing the materials from which all the elements will be created. When creating such structures, you should pay attention to additional strengthening of the podium supports - in order to avoid collapse. It is recommended to use plywood or MDF as a podium floor, since they have the necessary strength, but at the same time are not very heavy.

After choosing the materials, you can start assembling, but before that you need to dismantle the skirting boards, since they will definitely interfere with the installation of the frame. At the initial stage, according to a previously drawn up sketch, it is necessary to assemble a frame in which space should be left for the bed itself, storage space for other things, as well as stairs. The next step in the assembly will be the bed frame, also created from the sketch. After all the manipulations, all that remains is to assemble the storage boxes, sheathe the podium frame with plywood or MDF and attach a ladder.

Everything. The podium bed is ready.

Homemade model with a lifting mechanism: step by step instructions

As is the case with any other bed - the assembly of this model must be started by creating a drawing. The more detailed and better it is made, the easier it will be to assemble the bed. It is hard to learn, easy to fight. If there is no experience in assembling such beds, then you can take ready-made drawings on the Internet or from manufacturers.

So, the drawing is ready, it's time to decide on the necessary materials and tools. For assembly, you will need boards, wooden slats, chipboard (chipboard), self-tapping screws with a set of screwdrivers and a lifting mechanism. Unfortunately, making it with your own hands is extremely difficult, so you have to buy it. The lifting mechanism is gas and mechanical. The gas mechanism can be fixed in a certain position and without.

Once everything you need is assembled, you can proceed to the most important thing - to the preparation of parts and assembly:

First, it is necessary to make sidewalls, drawers, headboards, and also bottoms for boxes from chipboard or MDF.
From a bar, you need to assemble a frame for the base.
Then the base for the mattress is created - from boards and wooden slats.

A frame can be assembled from these parts. Once the frame is assembled, the bed is almost complete. It remains only to attach the drawers and sidewalls, attach the bottom of the drawers and fix the headboard.
The final touch will be the installation of the lifting mechanism and the sheathing of the finished product. For cladding, it is best to use foam rubber sheets laid in several layers. This will add softness and comfort to the garment, as well as hide any sharp corners.

You can cover the foam rubber with a cloth or other materials - such as leatherette or leather. The main thing is that the selected material matches the general interior of the room. This will give the bed an aesthetic look and completeness.

How to make a round bed correctly?

Round beds, although they are interesting interior solutions, are still not installed in apartments very often, since not everyone can afford to install such a piece of furniture in the center of the room, where it belongs. In the corner, he will "eat" free space.

As before, preparation should begin with a drawing, the most important detail of any business. It is necessary to match the size of the room in which the bed will be installed with the future dimensions of the bed itself. Often round models make double.

Having decided on the dimensions and having prepared everything you need, you can start making parts and assembling:

To begin with, two semicircles must be cut out of two sheets of MDF or plywood using special measuring tools - the future base for the bed.
A cross piece specially assembled from bars equal in length to the diameter of the base is attached to the finished circle, on which the legs are installed and another cross, crowning the bed frame.

After the preparation of the crosses, additional legs are installed around the perimeter of the circle, designed for better stability of the bed.
After these manipulations, the frame turns over - and we can say that its assembly is complete. The last step in the creation will be the installation of the sides for the mattress made of thin plywood, as well as covering the finished product with foam rubber (for softness) and fabric (for beauty).

Decor options

As mentioned above, the assembly of the bed largely depends on the imagination of the assembler and his ability to pay, which gives a lot of options for the final product. If we talk about decoration, then in this regard, the number of options is simply enormous. The main thing is to be able to choose the appropriate method. It takes good taste for that.

With the help of various decorative figurines, inlay, imitation precious stones or real jewelry, carvings, combinations of different types of upholstery and other options, even the simplest bed can be turned into a work of art. Even simple leather or leatherette can completely change the look of a bed. If you add there and carriage coupler, then the result will be simply amazing.

In decorating, you should not go too far, as in any other business, otherwise all the efforts made will lead to pretentiousness and loss of beauty of the finished product.

In addition to the types of beds described above that you can create with your own hands, there are also quite unusual ones - and very interesting for use in the interior.

One of these non-standard solutions is a bed made of plastic bottles... Of course, this is not the pinnacle of art, and the convenience of such a design is highly questionable. However, if you equip such furniture with lighting, and use the bottles as many legs under a real base under the mattress, then it can turn out very, very good.

Loft-style beds are non-standard, but gaining popularity in the modern world. By itself, this style implies the design of the entire room in the form of a workshop or factory room, so the bed must be appropriate. You can, for example, hang it from the ceiling so that it stays there on a special structure until the appointed hour. At night, the bed is lowered and used for its intended purpose. An interesting frameless solution, you won’t say anything.

In the modern market, you can buy very high-quality and luxurious furniture only for a fairly large amount. Therefore, the most appropriate option would be a product assembled with your own hands from those purchased in the store. necessary materials... Various tools and previously acquired skills can serve as helpers in this. In order to make such a bed, you need to be based on some of the tips and assembly principles described below.

The average thickness of the array, as a rule, should not exceed 50 mm. And the width of the back must be equal to the width of the mattress. Other options will only cause discomfort and inconvenience.
