We can't tell you the number of times we've tried to perfect our under-the-bed storage. We have a few boxes, a few bags, a few loose items, but it's never quite right and always makes us a little anxious.
Yes, there are a ton of products out there (Container Store, anyone?) for this type of organizational nightmare, but we really liked the potential for multiple uses - as well as the DIY aspect - of this easy "closet on wheels."
I just put my bed in my walk in closet and created under the bed storage by using bed lifters/risers in addition to a metal frame that was taller than usual. I have to have a bedskirt to hide what's under there anyways (big boxes of yarn for my business), so it was nice to gain the extra 18 inches under my bed.

I need to do this! I live in an old house w/ tiny closets. I have tons of clothes--mostly work-out clothes in a giant zip-lock under my bed. Its quite ridiculous. I never close it, things are falling out all the time...there is dog hair and dust attached to my t-shirts. I know this is so not crafty and obviously not diy of me, but I really just want to buy these things. Anyone know where to buy?

I wish our bed was high enough to do that, so much potential storage space. :(
