DIY Headboard Message Center
I really wanted to turn the headboard of this gorgeous piece into a message center.
As you read through this post please pay attention to the bold blue links for more Homeroad information and the products I used for this project.
Also please sign up for the emails for more DIY projects sent straight to you!
Here's how I did that...
First, I sanded it down with an electric sander.
Next, I gave it a couple coats of a sage colored Martha Stewart paint I had in my workshop similar to this one.
I used the sander to again distress the sage paint and all the edges of the headboard.
In the center of the piece I taped off a large rectangle then painted it with chalkboard paint.
I added knobs to use as hooks and a Scrabble shelf to hold chalk.
It was a great save and an easy makeover for a piece that really needed to be saved from the trash !
was up-cycled into a Hanging Bistro sign.
