Back in mid 2021. I was asked if I wanted to restore an old Sleigh bed. Of course I said yes.. Then the fun began.
As a furniture restorer, I get asked to repair all sorts of items like chairs, tables etc.
This was my first sleigh bed and I was really looking forward to it. The customers really wanted it doing. It had been outside in the rain, damp, stored away and not cared for in a good while. They were moving into their dream home and it was the only piece that they definitely wanted in their new home.
They had only paid a couple of hundred pounds for it and knew it needed a lot done. Including the width cut down by 100mm and length cut down by a similar amount.
It turned into a nightmare.
All the best.
