Can antique bed be saved?

This antique bed has been in storage for the last 20 years. I recently pulled it out and it's seems so damaged I'm ready to throw it away. It's cracked, warped and discolored. Then I though Hometalkers might know what to do! What ideas do you have to save it OR should I put it out for trash.

Damaged headboard and footboard.

From the side you can see how warped the headboard is. The too curves front from learning against the wall.

Large crack goes right across the middle of the footboard.

Another crack in the footboard goes up the side.

The wood and veneer have had water damage.

Of course it can! @Interior Frugalista is right, headboards turned into benches are the coolest! Check out Marie's board as well as this search feed: http://www.hometalk.com/search/posts?filter=headboard+bench Also!

You might want to contact this HomeTalk member to see if she has any advice for you regarding repairs and possibly painting. http://www.hometalk.com/diy/bedroom/furniture/painted-french-bed-by-junk-drawer-diva-3169826 You might also think about sending Marion aka "Miss Mustard Seed" and email with photos. She does some amazing things with furniture pieces that are well past their prime. (She's in PA too and might even be interested in buying if you want to sell.) http://missmustardseed.com/ I hope it can be salvaged without cutting it up. I'm sure in its day, it was stunning.

I would give it a good cleaning with a damp cloth...it make take several rubbings...then I would glue it where I could, using clamps until it dries. Then I would use some wood filler and patch...which may work on that cracking. You can use a texturing with texture paint or perhaps chalk paint...I have used texture paint, but not chalk paint. I would not trash it and I would keep it as a bed.

If you don't want to make a bench out of it, or feel the wood is not strong enough to take hammering, nailing, glueing and screwing that may be required to add a seat part to it to form a bench, then you could literally make a 'garden bed' from it. Paint it up, after repairing as best you can and sit in the garden to make it look like a planted up bed with headboard and footboard. There are some posts on this site that may show this. You could also repair and paint and use each board as a sign in the garden - such as a welcome sign or seasonal fall or summer sign. Hope this gives you some ideas!

I think it is beautiful, and benches are a great idea, I once had a headboard that was too beyond to bear weight, I used it as a backdrop in my garden I painted it leaving the imperfections and placed it upright on a garden wall, the mums looked lovely in front of it. Paint is a marvelous thing.

Yep I would try Restore too. I also might wet part that is wrapped and try to straighten it out. Put something really heavy like concrete blocks till it dries.As far as cracks leave them. As we get older we get cracks too(he!!!he!!!) they are just part of something being old. I love the design in the center it would be a shame to cover it up.

Save it! It it so beautiful! Lots of great suggestions. I echo the Howard's products, wood glue. You might have to remove all the veneer from the very bottom of the foot board.

Oh my gosh! That is a beauty, but like the others have written, I think it is worth trying to restore. I've never restored or paint furniture except bookcases so I know nothing about the process but I'm sure you'll get a lot of good ideas..If you are uncomfortable about doing it yourself, call in 3 different furniture refinishers and get their opinion and estimate for restoring cost. It is beautiful! When my dear MIL passed away in 1998, she had an old bedroom set very similar to that. We advertised it in local newspaper and called several antique dealers to get an idea of the age of it and the style..the ones that i thought would be interested turned their nose up at it...it wasn't old enough to be considered an antique..but could tell me it was "Depression style" Some small pieces of the veneer were off but Mom had kept them. We called an another antique store in a nearby county and he came and looked at it, offered us $50 and we actually saw him load it inside an old Station Wagon, and he was thrilled with it, said he'd have it refinished and put it in his antique shop by next week for sale. It was amazing to watch him fit that full size bed, dresser and chest of drawers in that SW..Nothing had to go on the roof either, the way he loaded it.

I would try Pinterest, they tell how to clean with 1/3 cup of vinegar mixed with 2/3 cup of cannola oil, (check to make sure of the measurements), my furniture looks brand new! and it was dusty! and some of it came from an auction and was dirty. Good luck, don't get rid of this, it is indeed a treasure. Have you seen the picture of the vanity on Hometalk a girl painted, it is GORGEOUS! It began looking a bit like this.

Take to a specialized wood smith store and they will have products to enhance the wood. Looks like it just needs a good cleaning and a wood restoration product. Linseed oil maybe. I would do light steel wool or light sanding. Think steel wool. Don't paint it until you see how the cleaned up wood turns out.

  @Carrie Barnett Duffner I had a vanity that had veneer problems. I raised it as far as I could with a thin long blade then used wood glue. After applying that I sat a few heavy objects on it and left it for a few days. When I took them off the veneer was glued down very well. I wish you good luck with this beautiful old bed that I would love to use.

Veneer issues unfortunately are a hard fix, b/c most veneers are glued on. However I do believe the outer edges are all natural wood, so you could easily restore that, and then for veneer area on the headboard you could always have that area upholstered.

Carrie - You have lots of ideas on how to refinish it, so I'll give you a suggestion for what to do with it after you finish it. I would love to have both of those pieces! I have a much older single size head board with heavy scrolling carved on it, that I cleaned up and made a beautiful silk flower arrangement the size of the length of it. I attached the arrangement under the design part of the heard board - across from post to post to fill in the empty space. Then we hung it over our bedroom door that just fit that size of a head board. It hangs on the living room side walking into the bedroom, so everyone can see it. It's gorgeous and have gotten so many compliments. It's so unique. You can do that with both pieces in different places in your home. Just make sure you screw (hook) them into studs on both sides. Don't want it falling on someones head. Have fun and be creative :-) Don't ever throw them away or sell them. They are priceless!

Yes! It's not really that far gone. The lifted veneer can be glued back down using wood glue, and the cracks can be lightly sanded and filled with wood putty if necessary. If from there staining it would still show the damage, paint it! Any missing things like the runners, can be replaced. Have at it and reclaim your treasure!

If the main structure isn't warped to badly it can be resurrected with a little work, if the veneer is beyond patch repair, it can be replaced maybe not matched in grain but it could be painted. Or you could keep it's weathered charm as well spruce it up with some oil, or go for the chippy flaked look, all depends on the look you are going for really.

It's difficult to tell exactly what shape it is in by the photos. Personally, I'd restore it the best that you can DIY. Talk to a restorer Use it as a bed. I restored an old " desk " that was attached to a wall in an old house we lived in. When I turned it over the underside had white paint can rings on it and an advertisment! Never thought I'd find that on an antique piece. It's carpenter used whatever materials he had around. It has claw feet on it. Funny. Good luck.

All the cracks lifting flaking do not send it to the junkyard unless you do not want the sweat equity that it needs. Having said that, makes for great yard art. Still it's wood and should be preserved either way. Also you don't have to keep head and foot together. I have a very decorative headboard that now sits in the guest bath w/glass knobs to hang towel. For the foot board I'm thinking master bedroom w/knobs and hooks for jewelry and hats or scarves. Good luck and happy pinterest-ing for more ideas.

I purposely purchased an old bed, headboard and footboard, similar to these, did a little patching and repair, used some artistry in the grey/taupe/cream/silver combination, and created a stunning headboard. You have an antique GEM! I'd hate to see it wasted on an outside bench when it has so much potential. I took the footboard, cut off the lower posts, then created a matching wall décor, painted, added wood baroque embellisments for interest, some nice hooks at the bottom for hanging hats and whatnots in the guest room. Then I did the entire room in antiques of the same color combinations, painted the room to match, and changed out décor. The headboard and footboard became the INSPIRATION PIECES. Just 'sayin'.

RESTORE!! If you have a queen sized bed, use the head board as the head board. Take the foot board, attach upside down or right side up over the head of your bed (from ceiling? O attached to wall?) as a Valance. Hang sheers if you like from the back of the foot board for a softer look or from the sides to highlight. It is beautiful, It just needs a little TLC. It will be a focal point for all to see. It has wonderful details. By the way, if you decide to get rid of it, I will send you my address and pay for shipping

If it is buy a heat gun and start stripping. To me it looks like the vanish has gotten hot and crackled. It would make a great bed to shabby.

At first when you look at it you think what a project but if it were mine and I had the skills I would rob the nice parts from it. Like the legs all the trim and the thing on the front that is to cool and you could frame and make a wall hanging or cut it so it is a table. How about this cut out the tulip thing and use one for the top of a table and the other for a bottom shelf on a table. The legs could be used for legs and the the leftovers could be used for other projects.

You could ask for a price to restore from a Furniture Restorer. If too expensive you could look into whether you have Insurance. Failing that you could wipe it over with Bees Wax to see if that would be enough. You could stick down the Veneer and maybe replace any missing (try a Craft Store) for supplies.
