    We rent a house, so I can't add shelves and stuff. I want to put my writing pad and books up there without sleeping on top off them. What can I do?
    Community Answer
    If you can't install shelves, you can buy a bunk shelf that is held in place at the side of your bunk between the mattress and your bed frame. Also, some shelves clip onto narrow surfaces, like the edge of your bed. These might also work.

    Add a privacy curtain or hang up a light, solid colored fabric. Or you could explain to your mother that you value your privacy and would appreciate something that helps block out noise and lights so you won't bother each other.

    What if you have a shelf but it is a lot higher than your top bunk?

    If your shelf is higher than your bunk, it might not be a safe place to store things. However, you may be able to reach it with a grabber arm, which can be bought at stores like Walmart and Target.

    Try hanging a sheet instead. Just use some thumbtacks and pin it to the ceiling.

    Ask them, try to make a compromise. Maybe get a little stand you can add on your bed.

    Is it safe to put lights on my ladder for my bunk bed?
    Community Answer
    You could probably wrap fairy/Christmas lights around the outside of the ladder, but you don't want lights or anything on the actual rungs, because you could step on them and break the lights, hurt your foot, or both.

    If I load my bed with pillows, do I throw them off at night so I can sleep?

    Just move them to the foot of the bed and or to the side you don't have to load it up. Three to four pillows will work best.
