The bed crown that I have been working on is up and I love it! It was tough attaching it to the wall that high up! Obviously, we had to remove the mattresses and had two ladders inside the bed frame. We used 24 – 2 1/2” and 3” screws through the back and into wall studs before I felt like it would be okay to sleep under it!
Ta-Da!
I used three lace panels - two on the back and the third one was divided for the ends.
I hung solid cream panels behind the lace against the wall,
but I wanted the returns on the ends to remain sheer.
I used a paint and stain technique for the finish.
It seems odd to me now that my bed crown was once this white molding in the basement.
I have one more piece of it!!! I wonder what I can use it for???
This proved to be a fairly complicated project for me.
It is finished and I am pleased with the results.
I have a few more simple changes that I am making in the master bedroom right now. As soon as I finish, I will show you the whole room for the first time ever!

ReplyDeleteRhonda,
ReplyDeleteOUTSTANDING!!! It's sooooo beautiful...love the lace panels!!!
Blessings,
Linda
BRAVO!! Might I say stunning?
ReplyDeleteI think I would use the other one to encase the front of a bench or make a bench with this as the front edge and stain it to match and set it at the foot of the bed.
Unless there's room in your kitchen to make this into a fabulous shelf to hold gorgeous dishes. Boy the possibilities are endless.
That is beautiful,Rhonda and I can't wait to see all of it.
ReplyDeleteRhonda, the bed crown is stunning. It looks gorgeous and the lace panels are just fantastic. It really creates such elegance in the room. Look forward to the whole reveal. Hugs, Marty

That turned out great, I like it! Love the mirror over the lace panels too. Really nice.
ReplyDeleteI was going to do something like this when we redid our room and then had a different idea using swing arm rods and drapes.
Great job!
Linda

Hi Rhonda, It's gorgeous, and I course I love that lace! We have a bed crown in our bedroom with lace too! I can't wait to see what your doing in there next and see the rest of your bedroom! Blessings~~~~ Daphne
ReplyDeleteYour bed crown is to die for!! I so love the look , it is so beautiful. I love the lace hanging down from the dark wood, and your cherry bed. So beautiful.
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful! I like that you left the side sheer. Really makes it soft and pretty. You did a great job painting and staining the crown too! And I love the mirror you hung up!
ReplyDeleteI think it's beautiful, Rhonda! It adds so much interest, too! Love it! I could see a faux fireplace mantel with this molding, too.
ReplyDeleteRhonda,
ReplyDeleteIt looks amazing and adds such drama to your room! Question: How did you hang the mirror? It looks as if it is suspended from the solid cream panels.
You've created yet another masterpiece!
Your Friend,
Deborah
WOW!!!! It's BEAUTIFUL!
ReplyDeleteI love it!! The rest of the room IS ready! What are you waiting for?!! You're room is so pretty and light and romantic now :-) Good Job Muddy!!

This bed truly looks like it is out of a designer magazine! Love the little mirror - perfect touch.
ReplyDeleteThat's beautiful! It really accentuates the bed. Love it!
ReplyDeleteWow! I'm blown away. That is just stunning. I love the curtain panels you chose to. You could use the other piece to make a crown over a window or closet doors if it was the right size.
ReplyDeleteVery romantic; what a great addition to your bedroom!!

The crown came out gorgeous! Here in California, permanent attachemnt to the wall is always important because of the threat of earthquakes.
ReplyDeletewow! That's cool! Great job:D

It's beautiful and romantic. You did a wonderful job.
ReplyDeleteI love it. your bed almost looks like my bedroom furniture.
ReplyDeleteYou could make a cool wood piece, with that extra piece just at the very top and then hang a picture on the wood portion and have it in the room.

Stopping by from Met Monday!! This looks beautiful. I would love to do this but our headboard is hanging on the wall instead of free standing. Great idea!
