My Latest Creation: Bed Headboard
Okay, so I've been working on this project for what seems like forever now, and I'm glad to say it's pretty much completed. Our bed is so simple and just sits on a frame without any sort of design/decor what-so-ever. Seriously, it's boring. So I decided to take that problem into my own hands and created a "floating headboard" for the bed. I probably could've moved them down an inch or two closer to the bed, but I anticipate getting some pillows to throw on sometime and wanted to leave some height for that. I painted some canvases and found a super cute damask stencil. The photos make the canvases look black, but they are really a dark grape shade of purple.)
Please don't mind the bedding, it needs some work of it's own. I really would love to get some cute pillows to throw on so it doesn't look so "blah". I will admit though, I have a hard time paying $12 per pillow and have contemplated making my own after my couch pillows turned out surprisingly decent for me having made them. Plus, there are so many cute fabrics out there, I love going to the fabric shop and being "inspired" and excited by all of the incredibly cute material. (But if you happen to know where to get cheap cute pillows, for the sake of me probably not having much time to make my own anytime soon, please let me know!)
