I think we're mostly all in favor of building Clarkson fans tight sleeping cubicles, and locking the door behind them.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

I knew it reminded me of something

The ceiling and plywood floor make me think of a mobile office building or double wide trailer. It could potentially make sense for airflow if it's not a solid structure.

At first I was thinking like a cabin in the woods kind of thing where the kids might sleep one weekend every couple of months and didn't think it was terrible. But now I'm thinking more like survivalist bunker and it's weirding me out.

Extinction for our time

Found the source, those aren't even real bunk-beds but metal shelves.

quote:

Nine of our children share one moderately sized room. We have a 3rd bedroom in our house, but they begged us to let them turn it into a dedicated library and we agreed, glad to have clutter-catching bookcases gone from every other room of the house.

quote:

Like the other bedrooms in our house, the floor is unfinished. It's near the top of our list of things to do.

quote:

These are heavy duty pallet racks from Costco. Each shelf is rated for 2,000 lbs. (that's 8k lbs per unit) and they are the same dimension as navy bunks. For mattresses, we cut 3" memory foam into strips the width of the beds (a king makes 3 strips), then doubled them and sewed slipcovers out of sheets. Finally, we cut queen-sized comforters in half to make perfectly sized comforters in fun, coordinating colors.





Another blog post covers the strange walls:

quote:

Unlike many families, we had the privilege of laying out the floor plan in our house. We built it ourselves - with our own hands, that is; not in a call-the-contractor sort of way. We built this part of the house with a future addition in mind, so this is not the final structure; it's temporary, but not short term. We wanted to keep the cost low so we started small while trying to plan for the most efficient and practical use of the space we were creating.

quote:

I mentioned above that we intend to add on someday. We built this house for expansion: there are door headers hidden inside the walls to make it easy. Some of our interior walls were built to be temporary: those dividing the 2 children's bedrooms are only 8 feet high and don't reach the vaulted ceiling overhead. This adds to the open feeling, and when we add the Bedroom Wing those walls will come down to give us a nice big formal dining room.

Why would you need to cut queen size quilts in half, why not just buy singles??

Both of my parents grew up in large catholic families. Each house only had 3 bedrooms, so whichever room you got was divided by gender. My dad only had 6 siblings and was the oldest so he slept in the families travel trailer in the yard as soon as he was able. My mom was unfortunately one of the youngest and had 11 siblings, so she shared a bed with 2 of her sisters for most of her childhood.

Also might as well get an industrial snake for those drains. So much hair...

For real. The summer camp I worked at had more rackspace for the kids than that place. Insane.


There's an all-black house I walk by every day on the way to work, I've been meaning to get a picture of it. It's pretty tasteful, traditional almost-Victorian construction, just all black. With a yellow front door.
