My New Headboard

These two old wood panels I found had so much character, holes, knots and the lines I thought they would be perfect as a head board.  I used the color antique tin by behr a little distressing I mounted them to the wall so they would sit higher than the bed.

    Those look great Emily. Why would anyone buy a regular headboard at the store, seriously?

    It was a good decision for you to create some distressing on the paint. I think that the headboard is now the focal piece of the room. The lights really accentuate the headboard, giving the room more density. I think the headboard, together with the sheets, reacts against the lighter elements of the room, giving it more balance. Nice!
