Murphy Bed 1

I’m working on a Murphy bed that we bought for our guest room. A Murphy bed is a bed that folds up into the wall as you would typically see in a studio apartment. However, we put one in our guest room to make it a play room for the kids. We didn’t have guests enough to justify only having a guest room, but still wanted guests to have a place to sleep if they come to visit. I bought the frame that provides the folding mechanism and now I’m building book cases and a frame and doors to hide the bed. The bookcases are going to be on each side of the bed and the bed will be enclosed by the doors. I’ve also posted pictures of the progress so far on the bed and will continue to update as progress continues.
