First, decide on the size of your bed... for a 1 foot = 1 inch scale you'll want the bed mattress part to measure approximately 3" by 6". Cut a 3/4" deep block of wood to these dimensions. Then, out of thinner wood, cut your desired headboard / foot board shape. Nail (or glue, but nailing is more sturdy) the bed together, leaving a small space under the bed to make it look more realistic. Next, paint or stain the headboard and foot board. Now, choose the fabric for your bed mattress as well…
