This bookcase/room divider was designed to give you maximum storage space for all of your books, DVDs, records, CDs, and anything else you can think of.
It can hold up to 456 pounds! Not only does it keep everything organized but itās also stylish too.
Two sets of twin beds tucked behind two large sliding doors adorned with lovely contrasting wallpaper, make this room perfect for a child or even as an office space.
The simple wood frame holds the bed in place and the matching nightstand is off to the side.
You can choose if you want just one or both nightstands because they come in pairs along with the two large twin beds that tuck away nicely when not in use.
The room divider is divided into three sections, each deep enough to fit a standard twin-size bed.
Youāll also notice that the room divider has two small windows on either side of it for extra lighting or just as a way to sneak a peek at what might be going on behind the room divider!
Setting Up Divider/Bookcase
Gather all of your materials!
Create a room where you want your room divider/bookcase
Place items in the room as desired so you have an idea of how much space is available between pieces.
If thereās room for a twin-size bed between two pieces then place one there to help you visualize how much space is available.
Create a room divider that fits snugly into the room and allows room for your desired items.
The room divider should be snug enough so that you canāt see under it from outside of the room but not made so tight as to prevent the room divider from moving.
If itās too tight, make another room divider or leave a little more room between furniture pieces.
Decorate with whatever pleases you!
The price listed is for everything in this post including the dining table, bookcase, four chairs, and even the chairsā cushions! It also includes a room divider thatās roomy enough to fit a twin-size bed inside of it and two matching nightstands.
The room divider pictured above has small differences from the one in this post that we have priced for sale.
This postās room divider will be slightly more crowded because it includes all pages rather than just those needed to divide the room properly.
Also, there is no wallpaper on either side of the room divider as shown above but it does include a special patterned wallpaper design if you do choose to place the paper on it.
For those who want to make their bookcase, Iāve created blueprints of my room divider below! You can print these out on standard computer paper and tape them together to create your room divider! I created the room divider above using these blueprints.
For those who want the bookcase, āas isā with no customization or changes, Iād like to offer my services as a room planner.
I will move items around in your room according to what you desire and input them into a room plan which includes photos of the finished product along with pricing for each piece.
FAQs
Q: I donāt have room for a room divider. What can I do?
A: Place items on the floor where the room divider should be, find yourself something to rest atop them and snap a photo of it! Photoshop your room divider into place or just leave text notes in its place that say āDo Not Moveā or āPlease Respect My Items and Do Not Move Themā.
Or if youāre not able to afford even free items, Google room planners before you need them so youāll have an idea of what goes where ahead of time.
You can also do room plans with boxes if nothing else is available. Just stack the boxes up nicely and take a picture of it
Q: Isnāt this room plan cluttered?
A: It is cluttered, but I cleared space for twin-size beds in each room so they can be easily stored when not in use.
Also, the room divider only goes back as far as it does because I wanted to add windows on either side of the bookcase which canāt happen if the room divider goes all the way to the wall.
Q: Whatās with the 3D paper wall?
A: I created it to keep children from peeking around the bookcase and seeing what is on the other side.
Q: Why doesnāt your budget include furnishing this house with brand-new items (furniture, appliances, etc.)?
A: I want you to get the most bang for your buck! New items are expensive and can take up a lot of space.
By re-purposing items from around a house, yard, garage, etc., you save money while also using less space for storage of said items.
Q: Why donāt you make more room plans like this?
A: Iām currently working on a project of building houses from the ground up (brick by brick).
Once thatās complete, Iāll be able to focus on more room plans and house decor.
Q: When will your next post be about?
A: Thatās always a tough question to answer! Iām currently working on a project of building houses from the ground up (brick by brick).
Once thatās complete, Iāll be able to focus on more room plans and house decor.
I hope this post has helped find you some great furniture pieces that are free or very cheap.
Conclusion
The bookcase costs $1,000 which includes everything in this post.
If youād like one room divider roomy enough to fit a twin-size bed inside of it and two matching nightstands then just add another $500 to the price! Iāll be offering room planning services starting at $12 per room when I get back into Animal Crossing: New Leaf so just add $10 to that price if you want me to move things around for you!
