Since it´s a wooden frame in the mattress, you can attach the legs to the frame. Same with the fabric - you just staple it to the wooden frame, underneath the mattress.. Very easy actually *smile*
So if you need an affordable sofa with chaise lounge, you should try out this DIY. There are a lot of nice furniture fabrics and legs out there to choose from, so the sky is your limit....
Happy Tuesday everyone! I´m going to a Christmas concert today, and are therefore in a extra good mood. I hope your day will be fabulous as well...

Ble kjempeflott! Helt imponert!Hvor har du kjøpt rammemadrassene? Og hekta du madrassene sammen på noen måte? Klem Julie
ReplyDeleteHerlighet, så genialt! Du er så kreativ!! Ble utrolig fint :)
ReplyDeleteGod konsertopplevesle :)
Klem
wow! what a great idea, and it turned out sooooo nice!!
ReplyDelete♥ ♥ allister bee blog
Julie: Madrassene er kjøpt på Jysk til 499,- pr stk. De sitter ikke sammen pga. at det skal være lett å gjøre det om til en dobbeltseng, men det er ikke noe problem å sette på et feste mellom f.eks.
ReplyDeleteNina
Takk for alle fine kommentarer <3

ReplyDeleteHello Nina, this chaise lounge is amazing, simply genius! Great job! Have a nice evening, xox E
ReplyDeleteDen ser jo super ut! Gulvet ser akkurat så tøft ut som jeg håpet. :) Hi, hi kjenner igjen Tine K-puten. Jeg falt også for den på H&C sin boklansering. Måtte bare bli med hjem!
ReplyDeleteSynes de røffe gråfarvene du har valgt er veldig fine.
Håper du koser deg i adventsdagene. :)
Klem,
AW
That looks stunning and I can´t realize that you´ve done it by yourself! Really fantastic! And I loooooove the knitted cushion!!!
ReplyDeleteSo I´m on my way to London in about half an hour! Thank God the weather will be fine! Here we have storm and rain and that´s definetly not the weather I prefer for shopping! Hehehehe....
Hope your concert was nice!!!
Have a lovely day!
Hugs,
Sabine
this is an amazing result! i have never ever thought about making a sofa myself - but your description sounds so simple... really cool :)
ReplyDeletehave a wonderful day

Amazing! i'm definitely going to try this! By, chance, where did you get the mattresses from and what type were they?
ReplyDeleteI am also curious as to what type of mattress you used. Are you referring to the box spring? I can't find any mattresses which have an internal frame which also contain coils and padding. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic job! I am very much looking to make the same! And I have the same question as above: what matresses have a wooden frame?
ReplyDeleteMaaike: I´m not sure what they sell in the country where you live, but we often have two or tree mattresses above each other, and the one in the bottom is often with a wooden frame. This isn´t a mattress I would sleep on, but it works perfectly as a sofa.. I only bought the bottom mattress, and I bought a cheap one as well, since we´re not going to sleep on it.
ReplyDeleteI hope you will find something similar.
Best,
Nina
Hi. I'm from Canada and just came across your site .... love it! Beautiful decorating ideas and much more! Loved the DIY sofa/chaise. A question ... is your sofa table/coffee table pictured in front of your sofa home crafted? Love it!!! Is it made from beachwood or reclaimed timber? I'd love to have any information you could provide on it.
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
DeleteThe table is made of reclaimed wood from China. It´s bought at a Norwegian store called Home&Cottage.
Nina
Where do you find the mattresses with the wooden frame inside? I'm dying to do this project but having a hard time finding the mattresses. Are they specifically named for the type?
