Jen,

First let me welcome you to my little corner of the internet! We always have room for one more friend! Honestly, I had to google to see what you’re talking about.
Since I’m not sure which type of bunkbed you have, I’ll just start by saying I would begin by dismantling the piece. It sounds like you have so many components that can be repurposed!

Do you need any kind of daybed? I would use either the top or the bottom and turn it into something more feminine with ruffles and pillows! I have repurposed sooooo many drawers, check out this post: https://www.myrepurposedlife.com/25-repurposed-drawer-ideas/

If you want to get more ideas, feel free to reach out to me via email with photos of your bunkbed!

Until then, stay safe, have fun!

Thank you so much!

Don’t give up on the chalky paint! It’s soooo worth figuring out. 🙂

Plaster of Paris, a little water, stir well. Then pour in a little latex paint. I’ve never used this with acrylic paints. Latex wall paint is what I use.

good luck!

Thanks for letting me know Phyllis. It is working now. My blog gal changed out a plug-in over the weekend. Perhaps that was the issue.

I appreciate that you pin my projects!!!

Thank you Carol. Some of it was quite challenging, but well worth it in the end.

take care,

Jennie,

I’m not in total isolation. I still go for walks, keeping social distance. I go out for essentials when necessary. I’m mostly anxious to go camping! Three of my reservations have been cancelled.
Stay safe!
