Read: 3 mins. A bunk bed was one of the joys my brothers, cousins, and I had enjoyed for the first decade of my life -- memories that are still with me today. I wanted to provide my children with the same feelings while also opening up a small, 10' x 12' bedroom for them to enjoy. Out went the Ikea, full-sized bed, and in came a white, convertible, twin-sized bunk bed that left our son overjoyed with happiness and a feeling of relaxation for us, the parents.
