Kid's Single Cabin Bed Kit Build

Once upon a time, Robb built a cabin bed for our little one. Eventually, we modified it into a triple bunk bed for all three kiddos. It probably worked it’s way into several of their core memories.

We created this kit in miniature to look as authentic as possible while being simple to assemble.
