Best Way To Paint A Black Iron Bed Red?

Give it a good cleaning so there isn’t any dust or gunk on it to keep the paint from sticking. Rust-O-leum spray enamel paint works really well and holds up. Even though it’s a bed and will be inside, paint for outside use is extra durable to be weather resistant.

Spray paint gives you a smoother overall coat, but you will find that it won’t get EVERYWHERE, so you may have to get the tiny crevises with a brush. You get a cleaner result if you do the brush work first, then spray.

Antique Styled Teen Bedroom?

My niece is coming to live with me, and I’m designing her bedroom. She loves old and antique things. Anything before the sixties, she finds extremely cool. What sort of things could be used to style her room?

Also, if there are any small accessory-type things, such as a suitcase or something, that would be helpful as well. Oh, she also said something about a white iron bed?

I Have A Wesley Allen Iron Bed, What Do I Do With The Washers?

I have a Wesley Allen complete bed in queen size that I’ve assembled but I haven’t put a box spring or mattress on it yet because I don’t know what to do with the washers that came with the rest of the parts. It’s an iron bed with no wood anywhere in the design. Where should I use the washers? I’m looking for anyone who has assembled a Wesley Allen complete bed or who works for Wesley Allen or any store that has sold Wesley Allen and who might be able to provide some insight as to how to use these washers. Thanks.
