Fixer Upper Style Farmhouse Bed

For such a long time I’ve dreamed of painting my already stained bed, white. I wanted a true vintage looking bed. You know, something that you would pull out of a farmhouse. Well, last night at 9:30 PM I decided to bite the bullet. I feel like I get most of my ideas at this time of night. Glen obviously rolled his eyes at me and tried to talk me out of it & my response to him was “Well, I’m the one painting the bed!”

Here’s what I started off with. This before photo is still really gorgeous, but I just felt like the early american stain on the bed wasn’t totally me & seeing as we build beds for a living, I didn’t think Glen would care. Just joking…. that is an understatement.. But I think he has just learned to live with my spontaneous carefree nature.

and after a little elbow grease, paint and sanding pads here is how she turned out

I’m literally about to spam you with photos because I just love this bed so much.

Now I gotta go again. We are busy today with clients picking up orders, staging a bunch of furniture that is getting shipped out monday morning and in between it all going to chop down two mini Christmas Trees for the boys room & our room.

Hope this inspires you to just DO IT. Go for it.
