Today, we are going to finish up the loft bed plans by adding two small bookcases and a desktop. I actually designed this plans so that it's really one small bookcase, with a longer top on one of the bookcases.
We already have plans for the loft bed and the large bookcase, so these smaller bookcases are the final pieces to the loft bed collection.

Correct link.
After browsing the site more, I found a link to the plans, but it's not the same link that is provided on this post, so I figured I would share the link here in case anyone else is looking for it.
