Here's a project I worked on for my own home the month before. My guest room desperately needed some help as it had been on my project back-burner for several years. After our bathroom renovation wrapped up - wherein our contractor had used our guest room for his tools and storage! - I decided to tackle the guest room and make it livable again. I tore out the old 1960's built-in plywood shelves, painted the entire room, including the 55 year old trim that had never been painted, and I changed up the bedding. Then I decided I wanted a nice headboard for the bed, but after a big bathroom reno, I didn't want to spend a fortune. So I built my own and saved lots of time and money! In 2.5 hours start to finish, one could say I "threw" this headboard together! But I assure you that it is made well and that I am just very efficient at working! I've made this style of headboard a few times, so making it again was a breeze, and once I custom mixed my stain, it was easy to get together and stain to look like older wood. Looking for a headboard like this for your space? :)

I have no before picture! I was overzealous to start this room's makeover and completely forgot. A before picture of the headboard would just be a picture of a pile of wood!
After: a country-chic headboard, fit for a rustic queen!
