While you can buy authentic or faux antique white bedroom furniture sometimes it’s more fun to do it yourself.  You might even save a little money in the process.  There are numerous how-to books and online references if you feel like you need the guidance.  

You just might be adventurous and decide to go it alone!  Here are a couple quick tips to get you started.  First you will need to determine whether or not you need to sand the piece or use stain remover to prepare it for the white base coat.  Next choose a color to “antique” it with.  The actual antiquing takes a bit of practice though.  You only need gentle stokes of the darker color to give it the appearance of being time weathered and worn.   

Have patience, take your time and your “antique” white bedroom furniture will be an accomplishment you will be proud of.
