DIY riser for KURA bunk bed
Thank you so much for the love on the girls' room! Today, I'm happy to share with y'all how we lifted the Kura bed off the ground a little. My handy father helped me with this one, but it's really not too complicated of a solution.

Originally, I wanted the mattress off the floor, because I felt like the bed just looked a bit messy/cluttered as it was. After talking with my dad, though, I realized that really, I just wanted the base to look a bit sturdier and more balanced. So actually, the mattress is still on the floor, he just added a frame to the bottom of the bed so that it looks a bit neater, and the added bonus is that there is now more space between the bottom mattress and the top mattress. Brigie was hitting her head on the top bunk, and now that is no longer an issue (as we added in an extra 5-1/2" of height!).
