Outdoor Day Bed with Canopy

Submitted by hawaiitara on Mon, 04/09/2012 - 15:22

We needed a daybed for our lanai and when I saw these plans I knew it was perfect. We built the bed in a day and then painted later when we had time. It is just the place for taking a nap and because it is on a covered lanai, weatherproofing was not an issue.

We followed the instructions and it was very easy to complete! Thanks Ana!!

I used heirloom white to paint it, followed by sparsely painting over it with turquoise so it would look beachy. I attached sea stars to the top corners. I used valspar paint in innocent turquoise I think.
