Materials: Eina, duct tape
Description: We wanted a bed for our 4-year-old son, and after purchasing a second-hand disaster that kept falling apart on us, we decided to go for something simple. IKEA! The only problem is that we didn’t really like any of their twin beds, and the space in our son’s room was tight. So we bought a simple Eina bed, but wanted to spruce it up. Our son had specifically requested a rainbow bed, so we set out to do a kind of swirly, mixed-up paint job.
Well, I’m not sure what it’s made out of, but you CAN’T paint it. We tried, scraped it all off, sanded, tried again…..no dice. The paint just flakes right off. Frustrated and tired of the whole bed issue, we weren’t sure what we were going to do.
Then I found the Tape Brothers site, and the answer was clear. Duct Tape!
