Bed frame in the garage before we moved it upstairs. It took us a while to figure out what type of feet to use so that we could measure for the wood legs for the main support frame.
Once we had the right length the wood frame and feet went together
rather quickly ~ go team us!
The only thing left to do for the bed project is to make a nice bed skirt and get out just the right quilt from the trunks. It is a full size bed frame (being old it was big for back then) and a modern size queen bed. We have been sleeping on a full size bed ever since we've been married so the queen bed feels huge, tons of room almost too much. I am sure we will get used to the space.
To finish out the room we still need to put the floor molding and door trim up and to find just the right lamps and make nice lamp shades for each side of the bed.

It looks great! I do love old metal beds. Great idea to have it held onto a queen frame.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I got the idea from my Aunt who is the one who gave me the bed to refinish.
