Painting Wood Bedroom Furniture Ideas
Can I tell y'all how excited I am to reveal our bedroom?? Amazing friends, today is the day!! And to think it all started with these $4 thrift store mirrors I made over for this space:
Then I suggested to my Hubby that we buy a new bedroom set, and he was totally on board. However, I nearly died of sticker shock and decided that painting our existing set was worth a try. I wasted no time getting to work before my Hubby changed his mind!
I shared the bed reveal and how I painted it already. It started like this:
I love it painted!
I was purposely not trying to give away the rest of the room when I shared it.
But today I'm revealing the rest of the space! I needed a few more decor items and I wanted to replace our ugly ceiling fan first. I've included a few affiliate links in this reveal so you can find the products I used.
Here is my Hubby's dresser before:
And after…
I found a few new things to decorate his dresser including this cloche from HomeGoods that I dry-brushed:
My Mother-in-Law gifted us the family of figurines after we had Brennan, and I got a couple more as gifts. This a great way to display them.
I found these concrete looking candle holders at the At Home store:
Still need candles for them, but they looked a bit masculine for my Hubby and they matched the room.
Up next is my dresser before:
Can I tell you that I do not miss this wood at all??
And after some paint magic:
I love you, paint!! This is Fluff by Dixie Belle and I just love it!
I never imagined this set could look so pretty!
The hardware is perfect in Rustoleum's Champagne Mist:
{And look at that pretty sheen the Satin Clear Coat leaves behind!}
I bought a couple of new frames from HomeGoods for my dresser:
I'll eventually have to find something to replace the Winter greenery, but these candle holders will definitely stay:
Remember when I mentioned that I found the perfect curtains for $69 a pair, but I just couldn't bring myself to pay that? These $30 alternatives that I found at HomeGoods are perfect!
And what about my night table that I couldn't bring myself to paint?
It ended up on the opposite side of the room by the bathroom:
I'm still not sure if I will eventually paint it, but I was not able to come up with a solution for making it taller anyway, so I just moved it out of the way. UPDATE!! I did paint it…see how it looks now HERE!!
Four more of those $5 terra cotta molds that I found at Tuesday Morning are perfect on this wall.
To replace my estate sale night table, I brought this drum table up from my office to put beside my bed:
I like the darker top and it was free! It 's not quite tall enough to match the height of my Hubby's nightstand, and. I took y'all's advice and tried to raise the lamp with some books. While that did make the lamps match in height and looked so much better visually, I didn't love the look of the books.
That's where the flatware box that I redid on Tuesday came in!
It was the perfect height!
And now this lamp matches the height of the lamp on the other side!
The lamps came from HomeGoods, and you can find the rug on Amazon HERE.
When I was imagining our bedroom furniture painted, I was thinking about how much fun it would be to decorate this room for Christmas!
I found this flocked pre-lit tree at Walmart for only $79:
I always love traditional pops of red for Christmas, so I went with that in here also. I used red ornaments I already had and bought a few boxes of glass balls in red, champagne, and white at Michaels. The berry picks are from our main tree last year.
And then I borrowed a tip from my blogging bestie, Nancy from Artsy Chicks Rule, on how to add a snowy look to your tree. (She shares several ideas HERE.) I added dusters from the Dollar Tree in between the branches:
It kind of looks like snow collected in those places! It does have lights as well, but they were giving off a weird yellow glow in the photos, so I unplugged them.
The yellow chair that was in this corner still needs to be dealt with, but that can wait for now.
And remember our old ceiling fan/light fixture?
We don't use a ceiling fan, so I couldn't wait to replace it!!
Tada!!
Better, no?
I was looking at several options and although I was leaning towards some sort of drum shade, there is just something so timeless about a crystal chandelier! Plus this was half the price of the drum shade I liked at only $140 on Amazon. Find it HERE.
What I loved about this one is that the body matches the drawer hardware!
I did have to assemble it, but I had a helper…
I assembled it and my Hubby installed it.
I love how it looks in here though!
Here are the Supplies I used to transform this furniture:
- Fluff by Dixie Belle {I used two full 32 oz size containers and about 1/4 of another to give two dressers, a nightstand and a king-sized sleigh bed two coats.}
- Dixie Belle Clear Coat in Satin {I used less than 16 oz and applied one coat to the body of the dressers and nightstand, two coats to the tops, and one coat to the bed.}
- Dixie Belle's blue sponge applicator
As always, get FREE SHIPPING on any orders over $50 in my Etsy shop. No code necessary! Get $8 flat rate shipping all orders under $50.
When I say this color of white has excellent coverage, I'm not kidding!

And how about those grapes?
I hardly even notice them now!
And that is the big master bedroom reveal!!
I hope ya'll like it as much as I do!
The most asked question after I shared the bed reveal, was how does my Hubby like it??
He thought it looked too girly before I was finished, but when it was all done and his Mom and Sister were raving about it, I think that changed his mind. So he actually likes it now and he even likes the chandelier!
I am so thrilled that we were able to keep our existing furniture and turn it into something we love!
I'll be back next week with some Christmas decor! Have an amazing weekend!!
UPDATE: Check out our home decked out for Christmas HERE now!
XOXO,
Don't Miss a Thing!
