Only $700? I'll take 2.

By badbadivy

My 12 year old son loves, and I mean loves his MP3 player. He carries it everywhere with him except church. (And he'd probably carry it to church with him if I didn't shake him down and take it from him!) So when I saw this bed, I knew it would be something he absolutely would love. See, you can plug in your MP3 player, lay down, and chill with your tunes. 

 



 

I showed it to him and he was instantly in love. I'm so glad I raised a son that can dream over furniture we can't afford with me. Really, I think the price is quite reasonable, I'm just a starving artist. ;)

Google for "mp3 pillow". They are pillows you can plug your mp3 player or other audio source and listen to. Haven't tried them but it seem sit would work. I found one at Ross's for 5 dollars and gave it away as a gift for Christmas. Christy

I think the easiest, but probably a bit more expensive, route would be to grab something like this, and simply extend and mount the speakers. You could put them empty,round speaker housings to match the bed above, or mount them on oscillating brackets, so that your son could angle the speakers to prime listening position.

I loves.  I'm trying to figure out an inexpensive way to make the base of that bed here, too.  What's another sort of headboard project, right?

Chris, I was totally thinking you might could make one of these, but I was unsure of how hard it would be to wire. Do you think the wiring would be hard to do?

If you've already got a bed, you could totally DIY one of these. If the bed doesn't have a headboard, you could get one cut out of plexi-glass, which would match the i-Color asthetic. Paint it gray, and you've saved $600!
