Locker Murphy Wall Bed

Project by Chris Davis posted 209 days ago 603 views 5 times favorited 4 comments Add to Favorites Watch

This is a murphy bed was completed in April 2009. It is my Locker Murphy bed. It is in a baseball theme to resemble a row of lockers. The two center doors fold down to make into a bed. The two outer doors are bookcases with hanging rods for clothes.

Here are some building pictures.

Nice job love the theme.
I always wanted a Murphy Bed then moved into a house with a small bedroom and no way to make one.
