I would like to request details on the construction of the privacy screen around the bed.

Namely, how it was attached to the Brimnes bed. This bed I available to me, and I can construct the screen, but for safety and strength I would love to know how it was anchored. Thank you!! Laura

    Yes, I did build it! An obvious difference as I saw an opportunity to get creative in my 400 sq ft cottage!! Cheers!
    PS- I love how it also creates an entry hall. This was the best thing to build for my cottage! Kudos to Houzz! And my builder friend who also fabricated the rotating tv bracket. Brilliant!

      Construction of the wood lathe bed is very simple. We attached vertical 2x4's to the bed frame with large screws, careful not to screw into the drawer mechanism. We then created lathe panels. With 1x2 rails and wood lathe cross pieces that you get from a building supply store. We thinned white primer with water and dash of grey paint and coated the unsanded lathe panels. Then we attached the panels to the vertical 2x4's and that was that. The rest is all in the measuring!
