Materials: Hensvik cot
Description: 1. Remove 1 side of cot
2. Use a saw : saw one rod at a time down the middle - then you can easily wiggle it out of the hole - this means no need for sanding.
3. Replace the bottom beam back to the cot - you need it for support. You can dispose of the remaining beam and all the cut rods.
4. Replace the mattress, and you still can use the fitted sheet.
5. Cover with some blankets & pillows .
6. Voila! A comfy space for your little one to read their favorite books !

sweet as can be -- lovely hack!
ReplyDeletewhat a great idea. my son is about to grow out of his cot and go into a single bed - guess what his cot will now become!
ReplyDeleteYou don't need to saw anything on this. Just take the bed apart and remove the front piece. You can do this to any crib from any manufacturer to transition it to a toddler bed.
