Old Door - New Headboard

I had this great idea...but I needed my DH's help to make it happen.  We had an excess of old solid wood doors from the house after the renovations.  We knocked out walls, so the doors were not needed anymore for the intended purpose.  Also, we were in need of a proper headboard.  Perfect!!  Here is anold door converted into a GREAT headboard.  Just attach legs, & a little paint & voila!

The Burgundy must GO!

Headboard After

Now we must change the hope chest at the end of the bed to my trunk!

Is this the trunk where I keep my "Junque"???

"Sam" The Butcher Block

You wanna talk about a piece of junk...this was it! This table was in pieces, with no hope for a new life.

So the process only took 1 day! Suprised even me!

Assembled, reglued, rebraced,

....painted, dry brushed, distressed & glazed. The colour is actually grey, with the walnut glaze.

The butcher block top is from an old dishwasher.
Some have inquired about the wooden bowls, my Father In Law makes them! Aren't they GREAT??!!
I love how this table turned out! :)
