hamburger bed

Juno has nothing on this.

Meet the Hamburger Bed, the brainchild of a crafty burger enthusiast in Texas. This existential creation challenges our dietary norms, raising questions like “Who’s eating who?” and “Where’s the ketchup?” Also, it’s apparently very comfortable.

According to the creator, Kayla, the hamburger bed is composed of the following:

  • circular bed + box frame (circa the ’70s)
  • light brown fabric
  • slightly darker light brown fabric
  • dark brown king-sized fitted sheet
  • yellow, green king-sized sheets (skip the yellow if you don’t want a cheeseburger)
  • 30 or so pillows
  • “a couple of zippers”
  • pantyhose (to fashion sesame seeds)

A blog called The Inadvertent Farmer on Typepad has a neat article about a D.I.Y. project that turned a defunct dresser into a dynamic cabinet for art supplies. Covered head-to-toe in chalkboard paint, this revived piece of furniture is the perfect canvas for doodles and drawer labels alike. Plus, it now features a glass surface to safely showcase artwork.

According to the blog, the refurbishing cost only $77 dollars, which covers:

  • Chalkboard paint ($7)
  • Brushed metal drawer pulls ($40)
  • Glass top and bumpers ($30)
