When I come across an old bed frame that has great details, is super cheap and can be turned into a cute bench, I pick it up. This twin bed frame was such a great deal and I loved the "scrolls" on the head board. I thought it was the perfect candidate for a bench.
I have posted many bed-to-bench projects and we put this one together just like the others. I did cut down the spindles because they were way to high and we used left over wood we had in the garage for the seat.
I set up my handy dandy {afilinks} HomeRight Spray Shelter and used the [url=http://amzn.to/2dK6Yd5] HomeRight sprayer to paint this sweet, little bench a soft green color.
Once the paint dried, I sanded down the edges to give it a worn look.
This old bed has come a long way since I picked it up at the yard sale. To see more details and the full tutorial, visit mycreativedays.com.
Enjoyed the project?

WOW, this is such a cool way to utilize an old head/foot board. This would look awesome in a garden or on a porch. Love it.
