I love having a "bench" at the foot of my bed but it is technically an ottoman.

 I could re-cover the ottoman or replace it with something skinnier and re-cover it??

 hmmm still trying to decide....

I still have a lot of work ahead

(decor, pillows, art, photos)

but it is definitely getting there :0)

Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

DIY Headboard Reveal!

Here is the headboard reveal!!!

close up of the trim..

I LOVE it!!! and I can proudly say I did it by myself!! :0)

Now to hang my new mirror!!

Jordan had to do his "manly" thing haha

and Voila! 

Ahhhh! So beautiful!! 

Oh and the white curtains are leaving, my mother in-law bought them from me.

and one more close up of that beauty...

I think I am actually sleeping better now, haha!

So what do you think?!

DIY Headboard

Here are my basic steps of how I did it but the tutorial I followed was from Centsationalgirl.com.

Hollow Door from Lowe's (they cut it for me) laid on 3 layers of batting 

Stapled..

Stepped on... ok just kidding... Mallie wanted to help :0)

I had a issue with my drop cloth for the fabric, there was a big seam down the middle! Boo! So I went to Walmart and got 2 yards of Natural Cotton Twill for $11.00 total. 

Sorry no pictures for the fabric part but all I did was take the door (with the stapled batting on it) and laid it on top of the fabric (ironed before hand) and stapled it also. Easy Peasy :0)

Then I applied the Nailhead...

Nailhead Trim Kit in French Natural from Perfectfit.com

$13.50 for 10 yards!

Tools I used for this process:

Hammer with doubled felt wrapped around it

(You are supposed to use a rubber mallet but I didn't have one, so I improvised)

Level

Trim Kit

I started at the bottom and worked my way around. 

The corners were the trickiest, but once I put my "thinking cap" on I figured it out ....

And yes I just said "thinking cap", I am such a loser

Ahhh but you'll have to wait and see the final product until next time!!

Mwaahh haa haaa haaah haaaaaa!

Project Headboard



I officially started on my DIY Nail head trim headboard. I bought this door for $19, had it cut to size and brought it home myself. I measured my old queen size headboard and went with that measurement, which was 65" if you wanted to know. :0)
So here is my list:

         1 hollow door cut at Lowes to 65"L

                                 via

6 yards of batting (3 layers total) by the yard

                               via

                        1 staple gun

                                via

               1 6X9 drop cloth for fabric

                                 via

  and 1 Nail Head trim Kit in French Natural

             

                                  via

Project almost complete....

I am waiting on the Nail head trim to come in :0(
