1900's Antique Bed and Vanity Set

A beautiful antique bedroom set perfect for a little girl's room. Or a big girl! My 8 year old has been asking me over and over if this is going to be for her. I went back and forth, but have decided to go ahead and sell this set.

It was stripped and painted my favorite antique white color. I decided against distressing this one. The last bed I did was heavily distressed and this one just looked cleaner without doing it.
The center mirror was broken out when I found this set but I was envisioning how cute it would look with a criss cross ribbon photo board in that space. Or cork board. Or chalk board. Or just have another piece of mirror cut to fit. All would look great!

The vanity has two doors on it that open for storage inside. Both of them have a slide out drawer inside. The mirror part does detach from the vanity if needed and the side mirrors can be adjusted in and out.

These pieces have a lot of fun detail on them that is hard to see in the pictures.

I wanted to move them inside to take better pictures, but all my kiddos are home for spring break and I didn't want them accidentally running into them in the house.







Bed has SOLD! Vanity is still available for $225.

Let me know if you are interested!!

Coming up......

I know it's been awhile since I've posted about anything so I wanted to give you a head's up about what i've been working on.
I am currently painting an antique bed that has some cool unique carvings on it. It also has the fun curved footboard that I love. I am also doing a matching vanity that goes with it.
These will both be painted in either a white or antique white color. These will be up for sale when they are finished so check back if you think you might be interested.
I also have a funky old radio cabinet that I am super excited to do. I've been searching Craigslist for one for awhile now so I was very happy to find this one for such a great price. I will probably be keeping that piece.
I also found this awesome dresser and just picked it up today.

Isn't she so pretty????!!!! My 8 year old has already called dibs on it. :)

I think my obsession is starting to rub off on her.
