Beautiful 4 Poster Bed

 When my client brought me this bed to refinish I was so excited to get started! 
 Look at all the details and curves!

She told me what she wanted to end product to look like and she picked a color and I got to do the rest!

First I sanded her down really good, next I sprayed the Headboard and Footboard with primer, to make sure the paint would really stick good!

After it was primed I applied the color, well kind of color.  This bed is painted in White Dove by Benjamin Moore. 

After the paint dried I antiqued it a bit with my sand paper, I used 150 grit, no too rough but enough to help bring out the details.

After it was sanded I rubbed a glaze all over the bed, I love how the glaze fell into the cracks and really made the details come to life!



I just love how this bed turned out!  It is so rich!



The best part is I have a similar bed in my garage waiting for me to start!  I will be selling the other bed too!!  It is a queen send me an email if you are interested!!
