Repurposed Bench Made From An Antique Single Bed


This week I wanted to share a bench we made from an old bed. The bed is an antique single bed from around the 1930’s or 1940’s. My mom made this beautiful piece mostly using the bed itself. This was her first attempt at trying this and I think she did a great job!







She used the headboard for the back and the footboard was cut in half and used for the sides. I helped her by holding each side steady and level as she mounted it to the headboard. Once that was finished she used all the side rails for the front and in making the seat. She used trim to finish the edges and upholstered the seat. My mom then painted the piece with this yellow cream color and once it dried she distressed it to give it a shabby chic look. The best part is she put wheels on it so it can be moved around easily. I think it looks really good and it is hard to believe she has never done this before. How do you all think it turned out?

Repurposed Drum Table

This week I wanted to talk about one of our repurposing projects. This piece my mom had a lot of fun making. She found the drum in this shabby condition and came up with the idea of turning it into a table. She didn’t tell me exactly what she was going to do and just started to work on it. It turned out really good.








She started by sanding the sides of the drum to make it more of a shabby chic. Then took 1940 chair legs and mounted them to the bottom of the drum to hold it. She cut a hole in the top of the drum and put a clock inside. Then she had to buy the glass. This was a challenge, but she finally found one and we were happy it was beveled glass.  She made the table so the glass can be taken off and the clock inside so the batteries can be replaced easily. What a great way to repurpose an old drum!
