Glamming Up the Headboard

Headboard

I’ve been on a mission to glam up the bedroom a little and the dark brown leather headboard had to go ! The inserts were reupholstered with a faux emu leather in pearl white and the buttons were replaced with crystal ones.

I also painted the nightstands in BM 925 Ivory White with a high gloss finish. I used their Advance paint which goes on like an oil but cleans with soap and water. It went on beautifully but needs 16 hours between coats and these took 4 coats ! And stayed tacky for at least another 4 days.

My friend Libby posted about Pic Monkey on her blog today. Check out her post at An Eye For Detail. It’s a great new editing tool to make collages and you all know how much I love monkeys.

Great headboard, Tammy! I almost went that way myself because I liked wood and I liked upholstered so I figured a good compromise would be a headboard like this. But then I found my current one at a thrift store and fell in love. Love the new color to the nightstands.

The thing is not only beautiful but also spacious and is easily adjustable anywhere be it bedroom or living room due to the elegant looks of it. It definitely complements my other contemporary styled furniture.
