- I'm so excited to share this DIY caned daybed with you all! I'm pretty sure it's my favorite project yet! Not only was it inexpensive to make, but it will be a great crash zone for our guests. Thank you for watching and be sure to leave a comment below, let me know what you think. 💛
- Cut List -
I purchased 5 Select Pine Boards at 1x2x8
1 -1x2 @ 76 3/4" mitered on both ends
6 - 1x2 @ 34 1/2" mitered on one end
1 - 1x2 @ 17"
1 - 1x2 @ 73 3/4"
2 - 1x2 @ 24" mitered on both ends
2 - 1x2 @ 20 7/8"
I also used scrap plywood cut down to 1" strips to cover the caning on the arms. If you do not have any scrap plywood, you can sub for 1x2s, but you will need to add this to your cut list.
Plywood

4 - 20 1/8" mitered on both ends
I order all of my reed and caning products from

Thank you for this video... I bought the Utaker a few years ago, used them just as normal beds for when my sons were home from college... We almost just got rid of them because we are downsizing... I am so glad we didn't, I can now repurpose them into a couch! Thank you!!
This is fantastic
First time I have seen your feed, you are AMAZING!!!
Wow, thank you!
What an amazing job. Love this.

This is amazing! I love this so much 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Glad you like it!
Wow this was AMAZING
I really appreciate that!
I have a different wood twin platform frame bed that I'm using as a sofa in my living room and it has been driving me crazy that it doesn't have any arms. Even though I've made a cane headboard before, this particular project seemed like such a daunting task to do. But not anymore thanks to you! I'm definitely getting on this next weekend! Thanks!
This is so beautiful, I hope I can make it too.
I'm struggling to find nice foldable bed and this is amazing...
I like that you can take the frame apart if necessary. Looks nice!
Me too! Thank you!
I L❤VE this so much!!!! Thank you.
Whoa!! Great idea! Amazing job! Thanks for sharing 😃😃😃
Thank you! 😊
💙 your little helper!
Haha always there!
Hi! A huge thank you from a tiny flat in Paris! We had these daybeds as a couch in our living-room because we really need the extra beds often, but we had always been a bit disappointed by the look. Now we have a very nice sofa and we're super happy!
This makes me SO HAPPY!
THANKS FOR THIS IDEA!!!
Love it!! ❤
Wow amazing I love it
Super cute🖤
This is amazing
Love love love !
Love the bed and all your videos!!
Thanks so much 😊
Well that looks kinda great, well done
Thank you!
This is stunning.. awesome
Thanks a lot 😊
Great job!
Thank you for this idea. I have been struggling with ideas on how to upcycle a daybed that I have. Now I will add cane to it. Yours is beautiful btw.
You are so welcome! I am so glad it was helpful!
Beautiful!..Excellent Job! Now everyone will try this :)
I hope so!
Wonderful job
looks great!
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you so much! You've actually done what I had in mind but had no idea how to execute!
Glad I could help! 💛
Great job and thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Loved it am going to use this idea but use my old sofa
Love this so much! How sturdy is the back without being up against a wall?
hello thank you for your video and you did a great job!
THIS IS AMAZING!!!
Thank you for saying so!
Love it
JUST LOVVVE THAT, SO CHIC.
Thank you!
Yea like some else comment. Right timing. I’m trying to find the best way to make my toddlers room new bed transitioning from crib and this just the right way. I was thinking of a trundle bed but this is good one too.
love it!! You just saved a massive argument my hubby and I were having about keeping a big Queen bed in the basement. Now we can do this and get rid of it and still have a spot for guests. Once Covid is over. lol
Glad I could help!
So pretty! and your little guy reminds me of my youngest son!
Thank you! He's a great helper!
This is perfect timing! I've been looking into this Ikea daybed and now seeing how beautiful you can make it I think it will work perfectly! Thanks for the diy! ♥️
Just curious, how do you like the Minnesund mattresses?
You can do it! The Minnesund is very firm, but honestly quite impressive for how THIN it is. I thought for sure it would get a little thicker as it expanded, and when I saw it didn't I was positive it would be uncomfortable, but it really isn't. I may invest in mattress toppers for guests in the future, but as is, it's really great for the price.
very nice. you are very talented.
Thank you so much 😊
WHATTTTTTTT I THINK I DROPPED MY JAW! 😧
Wow! Thank you so much!
Awesome design. I just aw that CB2 bed and am going to build it myself too. I’m curious what thickness the plywood was that you used to cove the edge of the cane. Also, does it sit flush over the cane or did you need to rabbet out that part? Thanks!
Yeah📣 I Ditto Everything they said below🔔 Excellent Video Ty! Your Tutorial & details in the making is right-on! I do want to make this: I wish you listed the Cost of Project🌱
Wonderful video! I have been looking at the Ikea Utakers and always found them a little lacking. This is brilliant! I do have a question. At the end of the video you have the beds side-by-side, but there is no gap. How did you manage that? When I fully expand the bed, the two wooden frames are placed against each other, causing a gap between the mattresses.
I absolutely loved this video - the boho / minimalist look and the amazing budget friendly version ! I wanted to ask what kind of camera + mount / stand did you use and any specific lighting? gosh... it was so LOVELY to watch and crisp and clean too! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and creativity! :)
LOVEEEEEE
Looks amazing!!! Super inspiring! How is the back support? Safe to sit with a book?
New to channel omg this is awesome beautiful
Thank you so much!!
It was the chunky baby that did it for me😍
This is great! What are the final dimensions of the whole thing put together?
You are my new fave!!!! New sub!! You explain things so well!!!!! Down to what size nail to use!!! Little details I need. Thank you!!! One question, when you predrill for screws do you drill through both pieces of wood or just the first?
That means so much to me! I definitely intend to come off that way. I definitely predrilled my holes. You always want to do that or you could experience some splitting in your wood.
For the cane webbing from Frank Supply - did you order the fine radio weave in unbleached or regular?
I love it and am about to replicate the same, can I ask what you used to stain/varnish the wood? Thanks!
You are amazing
Thank you!
This is beautiful, and I love how you styled it! Do you think this would hold up as a daily sofa? I am looking for a sofa/sleep solution for a studio space. So far I can only find the Fyresdal daybed that looks like it could handle daily use while looking ok, but this is so much more stylish!
We use ours quite often and it has held up great. We don't lean against the caning which is fine because it is so deep that you actually cant sit and lean against the back at the same time. My son and I both lounge on it daily.
Such great Work! I'm very eager to use your technique for the back of my couch. Have you had any issues with ripping the cane out of the staple attachement?
Not at all, but the daybed is so deep that we can not lean against it when sitting on the edge.
Ever though about detachable cane to hide the lower mattress when bed is stacked? Would finish the look IMO.
This is beautiful and thank you. Also...confidence looks like a woman wearing WHITE while staining and building a bed. YAS QUEEN ❤️
Thank you for sharing! I want to create something similar for my office space. How do you like the Ikea mattresses? Do you find them comfortable?
Yes I do! I have had zero complaints from guests who have slept on them. I considered adding mattress toppers but have been told its unnecessary .
Love it! You could also put cane on the bottom in the front where you have the boards(bed part)l
Great idea!!
you are truly ICONIC, this turned out amazing.
You are sweet! Thank you!
And I see you have your little helper where is he going he needs to come back it's not lunch time LOL
Haha he is always around somewhere and USUALLY snacking!
Bought the same bed and i am wanting to make a frame for it. I checked your description and I was a bit confused on how many total full size wood pieces you needed for this project?
I love this hack, I think I might try it. have you had any problems with the beds falling off from each other when sitting on it? I know these type of beds can do that, thanks love all your hacks =]
Hey there! Thank you. And No, they don’t just “sit” on top of each other, there’s a deep crevice the top bed sits into. It’s very safe and sturdy when stacked.
💝💝💝
🙌🏼
I'm sure that 2 twin beds makes a king size when they're side by side. A double bed is full size
Does the cane get stretched by the pressure of people leaning against it?
How stable is the backing of the daybed? I want to do this to the same utaker set and one side will be against a window so about halfway up it will not be leaning against a flush wall. Would love to hear how it's holding up, thank you!
It is not stable enough to lean against. I should have disclosed this in the video. It is mostly decorative. But we have had no issues with it otherwise. We just ask people not to lean against it when they sleep on it.
❤️
When using this type caning would you say that the caning is rather delicate and need to be careful using the piece and where you put it in the house?
That is always the case with caning. It is woven and should be cared for as such.
I love your light and airy style even though I'm sitting here like a little goblin in the dark..
It’s SO funny you say that because I’ve been trying to add in more depth and “mood” to my videos 🤣 it’s really hard for me!
@@MeganBell hahaha my personal style is very eclectic and colorful. My wife was all neutrals when we met and now shes out here buying super colorful area rugs 😂
I absolutely love this idea for some reason I always have people over so its very difficult to minimize the furniture in my bedrooms I want my house to be more functional now that I work from home. this is a game changer. thank you!!!
Glad it was helpful!
@lonefox please make this!
How do you like this daybed? Did you get it with the mattress from IKEA? Been looking into this bed for a while and this video solidified that it’s what I want, with the upgrade you designed!
I have only lounged on it, but my sister in law and her kids say it is very comfortable and have spent many nights on it since I built it. I thought I should get a mattress topper because the mattresses seem thin but apparently they are very comfortable without one!
@@MeganBell awesome! This is such a beautiful upgrade! Thanks for the info and the inspiration! Love your channel!
