If you're more of a "buy" vs. "DIY" kind of person, then we suggest checking out the handmade beds crafted by European furniture artisans Lifetime and Mathy-by-Bols, available on British website Cuckooland.com. Whether it's in the form of a treehouse with a rope ladder, a tent, a space ship, or a camper trailer, these incredibly cool beds have us wishing we were children again (or, at least, that the beds came in grown-up versions).
But darling as they may be, the beds come with quite the price tag: The treehouse cabin bed pictured above costs about $3,212, for example—not including shipping fees from the U.K. (Cuckooland offers reduced shipping fees of $200 to $400—most will average around $300—to ship from England to the U.S., and shipments should arrive in just two weeks.)
Even though the beds aren't what anyone would consider affordable (an old-fashioned fort made out of sheets and chairs will still have to suffice for our kids!), they're still a heckuva lot of fun to look at! Take a glance at a few of the amazing kids' beds for sale on Cuckooland:
