More Finished Furniture

I have been busy working on pieces of furniture I found at thrift stores for my daughter's new apartment. The solid wood head and foot board were made by John Smyth Furniture Co in Chicago. I built the side rails out of regular wood from Lowes and then used 2x2s along the bottom of the rails as a base for the wood slats.
I then spray primed with Rustoleum Ultra Cover 2x and painted the entire bed with Krylon Dover White spray paint. All in all, the project turned out well, and the bed looks great. Of course I did not take many pictures, so below find the ones I did take.
The photograph of the finished bed is not very good quality, and I will try and take a better one next time I visit my daughter's apartment.
