Here we are again with the second in my series of SUPREMELY procrastinated posts.
Remember when I talked about dreaming of a Kreg Jig and how I managed to slap this Headboard together?
Yeah… I know. I barely remember it, either!
But I did.
And I really did finish it… honest.
After I framed the two bi-fold Shaker Style closet door out with some 1x4s, I added a little 1×2 as trim.
Mitering it at the corners with my hand-saw…
Don’t need no Miter-Saws here, baby!
{Umm… but I’d flippin’ LOVE one. Ryobi, are you listenin?}
So then, I painted it black and added the top piece of trim {also a 1×4} and hung it on those crazy-beautiful stenciled walls.
Oh, just ignore the lumpy pillows and lack of duvet cover.
The headboard and stenciled stripes probably distracted you from that anyway, right?
Oh, please say they did!
Linking up:
it turned out fabulously! i love the height!
Thank you, Cassie! Now for some new bed linens… eventually!
Gorgeous! You are too clever to have to worry about pillows and duvets. Leave them for the housekeeping fairies.
Thank you, Annie! The linens are on my list, for sure!
This is fabulous! What a unique idea.
Thank you so much, Amanda!
You have given the Amish some stiff competition with your amazing and affordable knock off.
Thank you, Bliss! It’s so nice when something actually works once in a while!
Okay, so could you stumble across another set of those doors so I can make one of these?! Love the height and black against those stenciled walls! And pillow, what pillows?
Thank you, Keri! I found them at the Re-Store.. I went back for more, and they were all gone!
Ooo, so pretty and fancy! She totally deserves a miter saw, Ryobi!!
Thank you, Vanessa!
Gorgeous! I so very much need to get our room presentable. It seems to be the dumping ground.
Thank you, Jane! I have a ton more work to do in here, but it’s coming along!
Awesome job Gwen! I love the headboard. I have a guest bedroom that it would look perfect in. And it just so happens there isn’t a headboard on that bed. I’m in the process of converting all of the blogs I follow over to bloglovin. It’s so much easier that way. You’ve been added!
Thank you, Eileen!
I hate losing GR, but I’m over in Bloglovin’ now, too! I like it!
Love it! never imagined a head board from doors, and the black is gorgeous!
Thank you so much, JoAnn!
gorgeous! I love how grand they look! 🙂
Thank you, Ingrid!
Beautiful! What a lovely headboard!

Ok I seriously love this headboard! That dark stain is gorgeous on those striped stenciled walls, and I love the texture of the doors! In case you didn’t see it earlier, I featured this on my blog today! I’m stopping by to pin, and to let you know you can grab a Featured button if you don’t already have one! https://practicallyfunctional.net/2013/07/12-creative-ideas/
Wow! Your headboard looks fantastic! I’ve pinned it.
Holy Crap, Gwen, that is AWESOME!!! I have been looking for a DIY headboard project for awhile but haven’t found one I like enough to commit to…until now. Gonna look back thru to see if I missed it the first time, but what were the final dimensions on it (roughly)?
I’ve got an old New Orleans style French Quarter headboard that I love but it was for a queen and I have a king now. I’ve tried to figure out how to “fix” it to make it expand a bit but I just can’t make it work (without major money). This would probably satisfy me. I just love it. Thanks for posting it.
You can also break open the capsules of Vitamin E and apply the liquid directly onto the cold sore.
A doctor should try as many different pills, creams and ointments as he or
she can before finding the correct one. The reality is that both are names for the Herpes Simplex Type 1 Virus.

En resumen, el faraón Gallardón, que demostró su prepotencia como regidor de La
villa de Madrid y sus obras faraónicas le ha costado el puesto político su cabezonería al frente del ministerio
de justicia, donde en primera convocatoria se inventó unas tasas para que hubiese que pagar por
la justicia (manda cojones) y Entonces su surrealista ley del aborto,
que al final Rajoy (como todos los políticos españoles) ha mirado la
cantidad de votos que le podrían restar, sobre todo tras el efecto Podemos” y le ha dado carpetazo.
