You should totally paint the bed frame so it fits in with the rest of your furnishings. Besides the fact that the style doesn't seem to go, you could minimize this with a pale grey (to coordinate with the walls and other moody neutrals, i.e., teal and the sage in the table cloths) or even a distressed ivory finish. If you went with ivory or cream you could even work in that crewel fabric you had posted about in the past...Saranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481334885690177821.post-25578852561762064232011-03-27T18:51:08.987-04:002011-03-27T18:51:08.987-04:00Although the bed isn't ideal, I am going to ke...Although the bed isn't ideal, I am going to keep the current stain for now. I like the warmth that it adds. Gray is too cool and the settee's wood will be painted white so there won't be enough contrast. I think when the settee is in place it will look more intentional. And if it still looks bad, I can always paint (or get a new bed hehe)Bryn Dunnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481334885690177821.post-38031473982948818312011-03-27T18:51:08.479-04:002011-03-27T18:51:08.479-04:00Wow - I love how that deep teal color coordinates ...Wow - I love how that deep teal color coordinates with everything else. I think your new dresser is gorgeous! Though I would paint the bed before I painted the dresser. As someone who has stripped and refinished a couple of heirloom oak pieces that well meaning family members had painted - the refinish is never as good as the original (you lose all patina etc) and it is so much work (or expense if you hire a pro) that it is rarely worth the effort. Just something to think about but I LOVE the direction you are going with the room!FrugalEcologist.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481334885690177821.post-40003625222008621212011-03-27T18:51:08.021-04:002011-03-27T18:51:08.021-04:00I really love how you are showing us your bedroom ...I really love how you are showing us your bedroom chapter by chapter.
