House Frame Doll Bed Plans

I love cute mini house projects. This house frame doll bed is a perfect children’s gift idea and a great way to use up scrap wood! When I made the kid’s a tinyhouse playhouse in the basement, I knew I had to make a doll bed and doll bunk bed that looked like a little house! It was only fitting.

House frame doll bed that fits 18″ dolls.

When it comes to dolls and stuffed animals, we are always in need of more storage. So I added little supports under the bed for a pull out IKEA Trofast bin ($3). It’s a totally optional feature.

House Bunk Bed Plans

A couple of years ago I saw the most darling bunk bed that Farmstead On First made here. I made the mistake of showing my daughter the cute bunk bed and she’s been asking for one ever since.  My youngest daughter has grown out of her cute house frame toddler bed, so now is the time to make them a fun house bunk bed.

My girls are rollers in their sleep, so creating an enclosed bunkbed is a must. I also thought it would make sharing a small room more pleasant, if their bed was super cute. 🙂 The enclosed beds create their own tiny places.

Our bedrooms are not very large, so I was limited on the space the bunk bed could take. Otherwise the closet doors could not open. 🙂

An optional feature for this bunkbed are drawers under the bed. We are definitely lacking for storage at our house, so I add storage options wherever possible. They each get 3 drawers. I’ve been trying to work on the Konmari method for folding, and these drawers work well for kids clothing.

I added simple book shelves (or Paw Patrol shelves) for story time.

Cedar planter boxes with pink florals add some color and fun.

Ok, I know what you’re thinking. How do you change the bedding?

This is totally optional, but I put the front panels on hinges. This makes it easy to reach into the front and back of the bedding. But honestly with using zip up bedding, like Beddy’s, changing the bedding is easy enough that the hinging doors aren’t essential, but nice to have for Mom.
