Easy DIY Murphy Bed For Small Spaces

Five years ago I built my first Murphy bed… and it was a disaster. I cried, I swore I’d never build one again, and honestly, I thought Murphy beds and I were done for good. But here we are. This time, I’m building a Murphy bed for a military family using Rockler’s Horizontal Murphy Bed kit, and spoiler alert... it went way better the second time around. In this video, I’m sharing the story of revisiting the project that once made me want to quit woodworking, and how challenging myself to try again turned out to be one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had in the shop. You’ll see the full Murphy bed build, how the kit works, and why sometimes the hardest projects are the ones worth revisiting. If you’ve ever wanted to build a DIY Murphy bed, or you just need some encouragement to take on a tough project, this video is for you.
