This is our guest bedroom. Notice the lack of headboard. It has been that way for two years now. |
This is how the room looked before I decided I wanted to go a different route. I had painted in red our door headbard that The Hubster and I built 10 years ago. |
Big mistake! I attempted to strip it over a year and half ago and well it STILL is sitting out in the garage waiting to be finished. |
I was delighted that it actually fit! This piece is just what this space needed. I am sure the GPs will enjoy having a headboard again!;) |
I like the finish on it and it goes well in the room. Later on down the road I may decide to chippy it up to make it look vintage. |
Now if I can only find a different bedside table and finish this little corner up. And yes, I do see the alarm clock on the floor!;) Oops. As for the headboard out in the garage I think I will finish it up and use it for Oldest once he graduates from a twin bed.

Don't throw away the old red headboard. The half-stripped condition is perfect for a Texas primitive sort of look. I'm actually looking to do a bedroom in that style right now and was salivating over that headboard!
ReplyDeleteGreat find and the prices was great.
ReplyDeleteLooks really good in your Guest Bedroom. I also love the red headboard.

LUV!!! Iron headboards make me swoon....
ReplyDeleteI like vintage looking iron headboards and yours was a great deal. We also are without a headboard in our guest suite and I was drooling over your wood door headboard! So glad you are keeping it for your oldest.
ReplyDeleteThat is nice, Pamela and what a buy.
ReplyDeletePamela that headboard looks fabulous in that room...so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love iron head boards, I'm thinking of getting one for my oldest grand-girl. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI love your iron bed. It was well worth the money and delivery included?
ReplyDeleteRed paint is really hard to strip from something, isn't it? xo Diana
The black headboard looks great in your guest room, it made such a difference, settled the bed right down.
ReplyDeleteJoy
It's fab! I'll be interested to see if it does go chippy, because I have a black one in my daughters room that I've thought of tampering with! I also love the door headboard and this is also something I'm going to do. x
ReplyDeleteYou are right about the brass beds being timeless. I wanted one years ago, and chose something different. Now I wish I had gone with brass.
ReplyDeletePamela, what a great deal you got on that bed. Very pretty and I just adore those pillows on the bed.

ReplyDeleteWe bought our youngest daughter a beautiful white iron bed frame recently . . . and I'm in love.
They have so much charm.
A wonderful addition to your home.

ReplyDeleteIt looks perfect! I've been looking for a pair of iron headboards for my twin beds. Wish me luck!
ReplyDeleteKaree
Oh, the headboard is beautiful and what a deal you got. I could kick myself as I had and old iron headboard and footboard and my daughter used it until she wanted a daybed. I sold it at a garage sale for nothing! :(
ReplyDeleteBe a sweetie,
Shelia :)
Your headboard looks great.I love iron beds too. I bought mine from Bombay Co. about 12 years ago and I still love it. That's a record for me seeing as how I'm usally tired of a thing after a couple of years LOL!
ReplyDeleteYour headboard looks wonderful! It looks like it was made for that room! Thanks for sharing at Silver Pennies Sundays.
