Thank you, my closest idea was to get solid blocks of wood with a central cutout the size of the bed legs for stability :)

It’s honestly for aesthetic purposes, I have really tall ceilings and it’s a four poster so it looks rather silly and out of balance. From a practical standpoint it’s unnecessary, especially given I’m short and don’t need to be doing parkour into bed every night.

It was a estimate from eyeballing it across the room, I highly doubt I actually want it that high it was just a extreme for a reference

Roughly 30-50cm
