Are you a fan of tons of storage and a place for everything and everything in its place? Then you are going to love this DIY Pottery Barn Stratton knock off bed inspired by Pottery Barn’s Stratton Bed.
I love it. I can’t believe I made it!! The drawers work. It is the right size. All the stuff I worried about before I started turned out fine. It isn’t perfect, but remember my motto: Perfect is the enemy of done. And it’s done!
This is what she was sleeping on before so the bed has really elevated the decor in her room!
I am so happy with the results! I had originally asked one my sons if he might want a storage bed for his room. He declined at the time, saying he didn’t think he’d want one of those. Today after he saw PIP’s (Pretty In Pink’s–daughter 🙂 ) he came up to me and said he thought one of those might be nice to have in his room.
Now that’s success.

I still have quite a few project left in this room. I’m going to transform the plain-jane dresser into something more interesting, build a bedside table, put up some curtains, paint her desk and add a hutch, put up some floating shelves, and build a closet organizer. It may have been a mistake to list all that is left to do yet–I don’t think I realized how much more there was to go until I just did that!
But it is going to look so different in there–picturing the end result keeps me going 😉
