Sorry, don't know what rice furniture looks like, do you have any photo's you can share?
A picture would be very helpful so we can see exactly what you are working with.
Hope you can post a picture of what you've done so far. Some of the ideas you said you might try sound like a good change.
You could do a cream paint with brown wax. My sister did this on a similar set that was my niece's and it is so pretty now. If you don't want to paint, you could stain a deeper color. Changing out the hardware or painting it will also help to update.
You can paint the set another color and add new handles and knobs.
Could you post a picture? That would be so helpful.
Hello,
I did a refresh with white walls and kept all the furniture the same. I would never ever touch the wood the set is too expensive and I would not want to ruin the wood. I gave the room a Caribbean vibe all white sheets comforter no bed skirts. finished with lots of beautiful white throw pillows. I also did a sisal rug and a beautiful paddle fan with palm leaves. It's now turned into a tropical oasis and the bedroom set is untouched and gorgeous.
