It’s been a year since I told you about my plans to revamp our guest bedroom. In the next few weeks I’ll be taking the first steps towards transforming our little-used room into a more practical, flexible space.

I first shared our step-by-step guide to building an Ikea Hack children’s cabin bed and secret den for Youngest back in 2016. Yet, more than a year later, it’s still my most popular post.
