My wonderful cousin was moving and gave us this FREE bunk bed. Well When you have 5 kids thats a pretty amazing gift! Which is pretty cool considering she also has 5 kids except they are almost all grown and out of the house.
But as most furniture goes after 1 kid let alone 5 it pretty much takes a beating. This one was no excuse. Carved initials, bang marks, etc.... Whats a mom to do? Renovation!!!
The best thing about furniture renovations is that you can seriously make a room look completely different and all you did was change a piece or pieces of furniture. This bunk bed also came with two dressers that are still in the process of being renovated.
Anyways, Step one- Come up with a plan/idea of what you want. In this cause I just straight up asked the girls that were going to be using it what colors they wanted. With one screaming Pink and one screaming Black I figured a nice mix of both would be awesome.
Step Two- Go get your supplies. I got mine at Target. I bought the paint and so I didnt have a bunch of work I cheated and bought chevron wall paper that was self sticking (basically wall sticker)
Set Three- Prep your project which this one I am not going lie didnt need anything really a light sanding and done.
Step Four-Paint and let dry
Step Five-Cut the wall sticker the size I needed for the indents and stick on
Step Six-Take a bunch of pics and post it on your blog ;)
Here is the finished product
