Upholstered Headboard......


This is our bedroom - yesterday....
perfectly fine.  We have had the black sleigh bed
for about 10 years - almost a record for a
piece of furniture in our house.  It
has served us well but I am over its
black-ness.....
Budgets are tight these days so a 'no go' for 
anything new.


I don't know if you can see it - but there is an inset on 
the headboard that I would like to upholster....I am serious.
But first I need to paint the headboard, thinking a creamy white.


The photo below is inspiring me....

Not exactly the same style as my bed but I love everything
about this bed......I am sucker for blue and white with a big
dose of white.

Wish me luck!

    1. I've contemplated the same thing about my bed which is actually quite a bit like the bottom pic. I look forward to seeing what you do. I'm sure I'll still be thinking about it and yours will be done!

  5. I'm loving the burlap bed! I wish I would actually tire of it. My house is beginning to look like a feed bag... I'm always inspired to see what you come up with.
