Loving the daybed makeover… The white paint looks lovely and fresh! It looked nice in the original finish, too. However, I think it fits into your room best in white. If I were you, I wouldn’t regret painting it one bit!

I love Kate Pollmann’s couch where she painted it white. I recently bought a varnished and laquered wooden bed but I would like to paint it in white. The vendor told me that it’s impossible to do that because the paint will fall off easily. Is there any paint or solution that I can make the bed white eventually? Thanks alot.

Holy Wow – I have that exact same daybed!!!! I got mine by the side of the road for $15. and it was painted pink & teal. :( It took me days to get it striped and I still couldn’t get it completely clean! I had to rebuild the framing, and I still haven’t got new cushions for it – INSPIRED TO FINISH NOW! thanks so much!!

Love the stripe-y fabric on the day bed pillows! It looks a lot like some fabric I got years ago at IKEA, and have used on cushions, etc.

You can never go wrong with white subway tile! Love the bathroom makeover. I also really want those colorful pillows! Where can I get those?

Also think the daybed was wonderful in its original form
