IKEA Hack Bed Bridge Bookcase

The IKEA Hack Bed Bridge Bookcase is a bridge bookcase made from IKEA cabinets that takes the place of nightstands and spans a full or queen size bed. I built this project for my oldest daughter, Julie, who was the first to leave the nest.

My Dad passed away almost 15 years ago, and the pieces he made for me are priceless (a Cedar chest, a potato/onion bin, and a cross). Your family is indeed blessed by your gifts, the care, time, and love you put into them will forever be cherished.

1100 miles in addition to 3 bookcases, you really love your daughter

[JudythJ]

I love it, and I love the fact that even though she's all grown up, your daughter is still your "princess." That's lovely.

The things dads do for their daughters. My dad would surprise us once in awhile. My husband would give the world to our daughters. If he cant buy it, he"ll make it. He made a princess club house. Good job to the real dads out there like this. Beautiful bedroom!

Looks like it came from a high end furniture gallery. I love it. Great design. Moulding and lights enhance the look.

Wow, what a great dad! and you had your son helping? that's great, a love of "CRAFTING and TOOLS" will make him a man you will also be proud of. Thank you for sharing!

This had me teary eyed from how much love you can feel from this.

OMGOODNESS!!! To have such a father. What a precious gift. I need just such a storage unit. I'm a disabled senior citizen on a fixed income. I have accumulated SOOO much stuff and I have NO headboard. I am also a widow and would love to do it myself. I live in public housing though and I have no intention of moving. But it looks easy enough for my son. But he's just started a new job. Thank you though. Nice evening; nice work!!!👍👍👍

Super dad at it again. Very well done. Brilliant.

[blondebobbi]

Awwwe. What a wonderful job! You are an awesome father! I asked my father for a few things, and all he said was "Oh that is too hard to do". And he had all of this great equipment. In fact, a whole garage full! Oh well. Thank you so much for sharing this!

You sound like such a lovely dad, I'm sure your kids are so grateful to have a dad like you :)
