For those of you in the dark about what a Murphy bed is, it’s a wall bed that folds up during the day to save space. You can DIY almost everything, Murphy beds too and save yourself potentially a couple thousand dollars! Yep, that’s true. Perfect for a tight space, Murphy beds take any space in your home into double duty. Add guest space, turn a small room into both a bedroom and a playroom, create a studio apartment style space in an attic or a corner basement room… the ideas are endless. This isn’t a small DIY project to be sure, but one that is worth the effort in both money and space saved.
