It is time i finally get a bed frame, my wife and i both like this one. It looks like something i can build myself.

I would love to try building this with as few nails/screws as possible. It is for a King Sized bed.

Once you raise it up, get 2 6 foot strands of LEDs with a motion sensor trigger and stick the LEDs facing the floor on either side and the sensor facing outwards. No you have an automated nightlight that won't wake you partner. Trust me it's amazing.

    I bought a cheap articulated bedframe that came with "running lights" underneath, similar to this. At first I was skeptical. In practice, having a nightlight that illuminates just the bed's edge is unobtrusive and (surprisingly) exactly where you want light to avoid bashing toes and shins in the dark. Also, it only amounts to something like eight decent wattage warm LEDs; it's not even a whole strip. It doesn't take much.
