15 DIY Platform Bed Ideas
what makes a platform bed perfect for your home?
When you are looking for a new bed for you home there are normally so many options to choose from, there are beds that fold up like a Murphy bed for example, beds that use a mattress/box spring, and if you are into it there are even waterbeds :). Not everyone is looking to buy these types of beds and may be looking for something that little bit different. Maybe you are trying to find a bed that will benefit both yourself and your home.
