Craigslist Fail / Bed for Sale

Remember when I posted about my various projects in the works? Well I finished one! I bought this bed on Craigslist, but wasn't a fan of the wood color. I wanted to put it in the guest room and add a bright color. I bought some enamel Benjamin Moore paint in a fun red color and painted 5 (FIVE!) coats of paint on the bed. I love how it turned out.

Then I moved it upstairs (from the basement) to set up the guest bed.
"Hmm...that looks kinda narrow now that it's in the room."

Measuring ensues.

Swearing follows.

So the lady I bought it from told me it was a Queen size bed frame. It is a full size. Fail. Six inches of fail. Queen size beds are 60", full size are 54".
Sooo...anyone want to buy a bed frame?
