Alot of shoes. I really have to get them back in boxes and into my closet. Just never do it. You can probably find some dust bunnies as well, as it is hard to vacuum under there.

Dragonflower says,

My tote collection.

Dean6805 says,

We have a homemade rolling shoe platform made from a sheet of plywood and the bottom of a (computer) server rack salvaged from an old job. It holds about 16 pairs of shoes and reaches across our Queen sized bed. Very handy, if I do say so myself. There are also a couple of boxes with odds and ends.

MO_Thoughts2 says,

a small fire resistant box with birth certificates and my daughter's passport. The leaf to my kitchen table (they should be stored flat).

accidentaltourist says,

Books....lots of books. And secrets.

Wench says,

Nothing - our bed frame is in storage, our mattress is on the floor.

JAD says,

Birth certificates, old pictures, oldest granddaughter's elementary grade cards and no dust, just cleaned.

Redx3 says,

Lurking under my bed currently are the lonely shoes who don't get worn very often, a Tupperware wrapping storage box with wrapping paper and curling ribbon, and a cardboard box with spare girl scout uniform parts in it.

NumbrOneAunt says,

this made me think of a calvin and hobbes strip that i loved. this isn't an exact transcript but it's pretty close:
calvin and hobbes are in bed and there are mumbles coming from underneath the bed. calvin says, "are there any monsters under there?"
"no..."
"there better NOT be, because i'd hate to have to get out my flame thrower!"
hobbes: "you don't have a flame thrower."
calvin: "they lie, i lie."

Bevvie says,

so what's under YOUR bed Auntie?

MsKillie says,

My cats live under my bed most of the day, along with a box of presents (I buy goodies all year long), and a big Rubbermaid full of all my son's school papers and art projects.

marymc says,

Bunnies made of dust

ba_miracle says,

Only the youngest darling doodlebug knows.

Can I dust first and then tell you?
After the dust there is one plastic storage bin full of "stuff", a pile of books,
several cat toys and hopefully the shoe I was looking for earlier

KharisJo says,

Whenever we have visitors, Indy the cat.

BecomingLogyn says,

Probably many spiders along with many soda and paint stains... I don't have a bed frame as of yet...

ctgoods2 says,

Jimmy Stewart's hands

DynamicDbytheC says,

Jimmy Hoffa and Elvis Presley.

Undermom says,

A construction toy set awaiting rehoming.
A smallish box labeled "momentos" in my dad's handwriting. And his briefcase filled with stuff like his high school football letter.
My water shoes.
A stack of framed photos that haven't found a spot on the wall yet.
A mysterious zippered plastic bag.
2 single socks.

canadafreeze says,

A few dog toys find their way under as do the occasional bunny - frame sits too low to store anything, not even shoes ..

lillybrook says,

Nothing. It's a platform bed.

Mourningdove says,

Dog fur,a tennis ball belonging to the dogs, and a lone sock. I better go vacuum!

catsmeow says,

None of you are admitting to the sex toys?

Believe says,

Mine are in a bedside table drawer, catsmeow.

catsmeow says,

;-)

accidentaltourist says,

See above reference to "secrets," cats. ;)

Sunrise82 says,

A jumble of shoes and boots that refuse to be organised
