SUITE DREAMS

CAP THE TOP OF THE BEDHEAD WITH A TIMBER ARTLEDGE'.

CREATE MOD ARTWORKS WITH WALL PAINT, WHITE INK, A BRAYER AND TISSUE PAPER ON CANVASES.

FOR DURABILITY, COVER YOUR BEDHEAD AND BED FRAME WITH UPHOLSTERY RATHER THAN APPAREL VELVET.

Every room needs a focal point and, in the bedroom, most would agree the bed should be the centre of attention. This eyecatching queensize bed, wrapped in luxe velvet, consists of three projects - a bedhead, a bed base and floating bedside tables, which come together to make one heck of a striking statement. DIYers will love it.

EASY STEPS TO YOUR VELVET BEDHEAD

•2400 x 1200 x 9mm MDF

You'll also need

Circular saw; spray adhesive; scissors; staple gun and staples; electric knife; PVA glue; construction adhesive; drill; 40mm nails; wood filler; sandpaper; clear varnish; painting gear; countersinking drill bit; 50mm wood screws

ABOVE EACH BEDHEAD PANEL ARE TWO BOLSTERS, TOPPED BY A TASMANIAN OAK ART LEDGE.

Here's how

STEP 1 Use a circular saw to cut 865mm high panels of MDF. Cuti centre panel to half the width of the wall, then cut 2 side panels to fill the rest of the wall, and 2 wing panels that measure 450mm wide.
