We started, waaay back in February, with a blank area in our bedroom. We went to a local bedroom store and got a steal on a great mattress, that we spent lots of money on :) When you figure how much time is spent on it, it's worth the money.

The room is small, about 10x12, and we were dying for a solution that would give us some significant storage, but not take up the room of say a wardrobe, or dresser.

I remembered in college the "loft" that I had, that really helped to open up the space in my room, as as the ability to put stuff underneat it. Hence, the idea of the Mini-Loft emerged.

The Mini-Loft isn't anything extreme, but it would take some skills that I don't have. I can come up with the ideas, but I can't do all the woodwork as efficiently as someone that "knows the trade" can, to be sure.

I put some cardboard down to protect the carpet. I lucked out in that the cabinets came in some so it worked out for everyone.

The cabinets were "naked furniture" so that we could match the color to the spread, the walls, anything else that we might need.

The tools and materials I'd need were simple: Everything that you see in this window, along with the Mattress, (just out of camera range), three standard tall kitchen cabinets, and some patience :)

The first thing I did was take off the doors so I could stain the units appropriately.

A few quick electric screwdriver turns later, on both this and the other two units I had the doors off.
