But generally I use Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch spray primer and spray paint.

I finally gave it away though because I shocked myself on it constantly. :( Now I have a lovely wooden bed, except that the footboard is at shin height so I bark my shins constantly on it. Why must my furniture torture me so?<br />Also I would love to see a picture of the headboard against the purple, I think that will look awesome!swgarasuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05580667494323261099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9176007711635280067.post-14254987653385179662014-09-01T14:55:47.922-06:002014-09-01T14:55:47.922-06:00I admit I was a little skeptical when I first went...I admit I was a little skeptical when I first went to a used building materials store. I thought perhaps everything would be hideous 1970s rejects. ;) But many of the items are surprisingly new.
