How do I create a block between my bed and window?

Kee
by Kee

I have a king size bed pushed into the corner of my room and the right side of my bed is directly pushed against the window. I would like to lean against this side of my bed as a wall instead of sitting up trying not to fall into the window. Is there anything i could do to create a lounging space on this side of the bed? Like maybe place a board between my bed and the window and add some pillows?

    I think you could put something like paneling or plywood against your wall, covering the window...paint it the same color as the walls, add some pillows that match your bedding and you should be all set. You may not be able to have drapes/curtains on your window but you could have an inside mount roller shade so that the thin paneling/plywood will lean against it.

    This is what i was thinking too! But i did not consider not being able to have drapes on my windows. Thanks for the alternative idea!

    I have read your post, and you have shared really great ideas. I was also thinking about this but I don't any idea. So, I was thinking about hiring someone like LP SmartSide Denver and while searching them I have found your post and now I can do this by myself.
