hi all
im looking for your revamping ideas!!
i have a pine bed like the picture, just a bit chunkier. anyway its looking a bit sad and i can see all your wonderful transformations and i hope you can give me some ideas what to do with this?

Default bed makeover

Why not paint it cream; goes with everything. If you are into the distressed look just rub a candle along some of the edges before you paint and when its dry just rub the waxed edges and you will see the pine peep through

You could use gloss or satin, whichever you prefer. Personally, I'd go for satin. You won't believe how much more expensive looking your bed will be once its painted. Be sure to post an after pic as well!

You could also stencil a nice design on it after painting.
