Entryway Bench
5 Materials
We bought an old antique bed frame to make into a entry way bench.
Antique Bed Frame
Showing all the pieces
Footboard is cut in 2 and turned to attach to headboard, this forms the arms of chairs. The bedrails became the front.
One board had to bought for the seat of bench.
Painted it beige because the wood really didn't match the decor.
Lastly we distressed the paint and added pillows!

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
I am also in the process of doing this with my mothers old antique bed. Question, what support and how did you support the seat? There is not enough wood for support on my footboard, and the nails will not be strong enough to support someone actually sitting on this.
