Wooden furniture in a bedroom can be repainted.
Furniture in your bedroom, such as a wooden dresser, can easily be repainted when you want to update the look of the room without purchasing new furniture. In order to repaint the furniture, you will need to determine which pieces will need to be updated. You can repaint bedroom furniture by first taking it out of the room and moving it to a place where you can begin the project.
