Imaginative beds: 10 fun ideas, from a pirate ship to a racing car!
Children's bedrooms are always fun to furnish: they are the spaces in which you can more easily let yourself go and create a colorful and creative environment. And it can become an environment to stimulate the imagination of the little ones who will play there. So we can experiment with wallpaper or with colorful paint on the walls, the shape of the furniture and the choice of all the other decorations.
And if the children show us that they love something in particular, this can become a theme - it could be boats or cars or animals and in all their forms. Thus a bed can become a pirate ship, a racing car, but also a truck and more. Below we suggest some ideas from which you can draw inspiration - both to build these structures from scratch, or to start from ready-made bed structures.

A bed that hides secret compartments to hide your loot, and there is also a space under the mattress to act as a container beds. Since it is a boat, it seems almost mandatory to give it a name plate, or even by painting it on the side of the hull.
You can create structures that really make you think of pirate ships, and it will be the playground for a thousand adventures.
If you're not very skilled with DIY, you can always choose a bed frame model that resembles the lines of a ship's hull, and then add details to the room, such as a canopy instead of the headboard and a bed frame acting as the ship's helm!
A little paint and a bow added to the front and even a bunk bed can make you think of a boat!
Here, someone just brought an old motorboat into the house and made a bed out of it.
A jeep for each of the children, with their names above them: it's a cute idea for an alternative four-poster bed.
To give a bed the appearance of a car, it is sufficient just to frame it with properly shaped and painted wooden pieces in such a way as to replicate a car, perhaps for racing or for work!
And you can be inspired by the lines of the car models you like best, as well as old, vintage racing models.
For a bunk bed, for example, the idea of a heavy vehicle, like a truck or bus, fits perfectly.
And if you find the right idea, you just need to decorate some of the ready-made bed frames that are available, like in this DIY project that used the IKEA VIKARE model bed.
