Now that we have a little one on her way, Shane and I needed to transform our study into the babies room and our spare room into the study, but we still wanted to have the option of using the study as a guest bedroom. So I went looking for some reference on how we could do exactly that in a compact and clever way.
My very clever husband then had a look at all the reference I gave him, adapted one of the ideas and then drew up the plans for our DIY Guest room/study. He then set out to build it by himself, which I was a bit apprehensive about, but now that it’s complete and flipping awesome, I will never ever question his ability to wield a hammer and saw again.
So without further a due, here is our 3rd bedroom, which we have made into a spare room/study. If anyone is interested in Shane’s step by step guide on how he did this, you can just click here. He did a post explaining the whole process bit by bit. Next project, is the babies crib, which he is also making himself, building commences on Friday and I’ll be sure to show you guys the end result.

What are the dimensions of this platform? Mostly I am wondering how high the platform is … I’m hoping to do something like this in my new apartment.
I love that office chair! Where did you find it?
Hey there,
A friend of ours found it at an antique store years ago and gave to us as a gift….
Hi there, we were wondering how much weight this holds?
Hi I was wondering what type of wood you used to build the frame
Do you mind sharing the dimensions of both the room and the platform? This is BRILLIANT!
