I LOVE brightly colored headboard! They are always so fun to use as a statement piece.
I am a little mad I forgot to take a before picture of this beauty. She was quite an eye sore, there was a big faux wood oval in the center with some weird hand painted flowers! You can imagine how happy I was when the oval popped right off! And in its place I added this beautiful appliqué.
This appliqué made the headboard so much more elegant it had to have lace pillows to go with it!
After all doesn't every bed need a few pillows?!
Luck would have it this paint color was in the Mistinted section, I love it when they make mistakes with pretty colors ;) After the bed was all painted up I added the glaze and antiqued it to bring out all the fun details of this bed!!
This bed is for sale, if you are interested send me an email or please see the Furniture For Sale Tab at the top of the page!!

That is such a pretty colour and really updates the headboard. I am just finishing up a pair of chairs in a similar style in half Old White and Half Provence ASCP. I have made my own chalky paint before with mistints too. Do you paint the latex straight up, with a primer first or do you make a chalky type paint with an additive?
