The Belcourte Collection

Today, I'm doing the happy Tuesday dance. Look at these AMAZING finds! Two matching vintage beds. They have detail, wood wheels, spindle legs and lots of worn chippiness. They are perfect! And there wasn't one, there were TWO of them!

I may have actually thrown my money at the gal selling them.

Two sisters need these beds! They need to have pillow fights, late night discussions and lots and lots of giggles. But, before anybody can enjoy them, they need a serious face lift. Perhaps, somebody living in a gingerbread house might enjoy them as is. But....I don't know very many people that live in gingerbread houses. Do you?

Inspired by Anthropologie, I wanted them to be bright & bold.

I chose Chalk Paint® decorative paint by Annie Sloan in Florence which gives you a really deep turquoise/peacock blue hue. I highlighted them with a mixture of Clear & Dark Wax.

Here are some of the details of this furniture makeover...

If I was the new owner of these beds, I'd pair them with white duvets and lots of fun patterned pillows. Here's to bright & bold!

officially jealous! I love matching twin bed sets...I told my husband that once we are out of rental I will be buying matching vintage bed sets for my girls. This is absolutely adorable!

Ohhhh. . . I love the color of your sweet beds! Found you over at DIY Vintage Chic and now I'm off to search through the rest of your furniture makeovers.
