Crib Makeover

May 18, 2013

We were given our crib by a good friend, and it was well “loved”  by Wyatt, as made evident by the many teeth marks all over it. When I was preparing the new nursery for Lincoln I decided that  new paint was not enough… it needed a new look.

Before:  

During:

First: I started by cutting the bead board paneling so that it would fit in the end caps.

Second: Then I cut off the rounded top of the end caps, and put a 1×3 across the top with a piece of trim under that.

 

Last Step: Sanded it completely down  followed by , 2 coats of primer, followed by a topcoat.

 

After:

 
 

Ta-Da  a little elbow grease and a sheet of  bead board go a long way!

(function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i[‘GoogleAnalyticsObject’]=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
(i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),
m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)
})(window,document,’script’,’//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js’,’ga’);

Meet Corey

Hi everyone, my name is Corey, and I have a problem. I can’t leave well enough alone… The best therapy usually involves a variety of power tools. So, in the few “spare” moments I am not entertaining my two beautiful, rambunctious, boys, I can typically be found hunched over a sewing machine and/or covered in sawdust. All in the efforts to create a perfect balance of aesthetics and practicality in our home.
