Joan Steffend and designer Ann Sundet make over a guest bedroom. The homeowners are a newly married couple with lots of hand-me-down furniture. Sundet spruces up the room using fabric and wall painting techniques. She explains the construction of a headboard and a radiator cover that matches it. We also see how two-tier side tables can become nightstands with the addition of fabric. Then Robb Whittlef teaches some techniques to transform a picket fence into a bench and a wood ironing board into a knick-knack display. We also see how to make a kitchen cupboard with pressed tin and a wood slat top. Watch as Evelyn Thames and Wendy Dilda rearrange a three-season porch into a cozy little space to relax. Finally, Sundet discusses a few tips on the headboard construction.
