Our 7 year old daughter has had some trouble sleeping at night, worrying of what might be lurking below her bed. We knew we needed to build her a new bed for some time now and my wife has be pushing for a cute canopy bed. The design of this bed is simple but we kept the bed low to the ground so no monsters could fit under her bed and we used higher quality materials, oak in this case, for an elegant finish!
