This is always the risk when buying a budget bed frame, and y'all, I was literally waking myself up at night every time I moved 😭

Okay, so l've actually fixed this before on a couple of beds (why I wasn't too worried about going with an affordable choice for the bed frame). Last time, I used thin adhesive cork to line the underside and sides of where the bed slats meet the frame, but I wasn't totally sure that was the source of the noise. This time, I tried cutting up a thin rubber rug pad and placing it along the bottom and sides of each slat to test it out. And it worked perfectly! It's been a few nights now and still completely quiet. I might switch back to adhesive cork now that I know that's the issue, just because it looks cleaner and blends in better.

Anyways, I had to share because there's truly nothing more annoying than a squeaky bed!!
