Bought a pine 3ft bed at a charity shop but it was broken along the base with some struts missing, rather than use as a bed I had the idea to make a bed bench as the wood was good, the side rails were ideal for supports across the front and the head and footboard ideal for the back and sides, I added ball finials and painted it with GF MIlk paint in Seagull Grey, added carved hearts etc, very solid sturdy piece, I've made a few now and my customers love them, easier to make and source than church pews which are not easy to find in the UK
