Did you ever price king headboards? Seriously.
I wanted a dramatic headboard for my king size bed (actually two twins pushed together) so I saw this idea in a magazine or online…somewhere. I talked to my husband and he rolled his eyes.
I bought three paneled doors at Home Depot (I think they were $35 each) and a piece of crown molding. I told him what I wanted and he actually came up with an idea to make it better (imagine that!) To cover the seams between the doors, he used decorative shoe molding or some kind of molding and he added a shelf to the top. To attach…he just drilled into the wall studs and they are there forever (unless I want to do some drywall repair…but, I don’t).
Yippee! My headboard was Beckie's pick this week:

So cool! I love the crown molding and the height of it.
I'm telling you, your husband's a keeper! I love the headboard! You had a great vision for what you wanted (and yes, coming up with the idea and painting counts!)
Have a great weekend.
