GOOD NIGHT revamped beds in review
King & Queen sized mattresses were first
introduced in 1958. The footboard above was from
an older double sized frame so it had to be
converted to accomodate the 60" width of a queen
mattress. The headboard was a more modern
queen which was then matched up to the antique
foot & rails.
Most bed frames I work on are
mismatched pieces collected over time.
Here was a solid oak Georgian style
headboard just needing a new color.
This was our headboard before purchasing a new to
us craigs list cherry sleigh set. George needs his
manly man furniture around. I originally build it
from a simple chunky type pine head & foot board.
I extended the height & added all the great details.
I try to build the frame section for my beds so a
boxspring is not needed. Due to the shear size I
can only build beds in the summer when I have the
great out doors to build and photograph in.
Old pine waterbed parts including those bookshelf
headboards are perfect for parts to make new
mattress platforms from.
This french inspired headboard got a faux distressed
paint finish atop of a soft creme color.
This pine frame needed some serious revamping.
A beautiful designed headboard sprayed in white.
These designs are extruded foam a common practise
from the 60s thru the 80s.
