All You Need Is a Good Mattress to Put on Top

Sleep is sacred to a lot of people. It's almost ritualistic sometimes. There are all these different schools of thought and opinions on what type of sheets are best, what type of pillows provide the best support, and whether memory foam or traditional box spring mattresses are best. But regardless of those preferences, if you're in a pinch in a new apartment and need a bed frame, fast, look no further than two rows of cinder blocks and a large sheet of plywood.

This DIY sleeping platform will be just as comfortable as the bedding that you put on top of it and just as sturdy as you make it, so it's really up to you how far you want to take this!
