Done... well all most.
I tried to wait to post a pic of the finished headboard... here's why. I'm using the children to try and hide out 5 year old bedspread that desperately needs to be replaced. I decided on Saturday that no matter what we were going to have that headboard painted and in our room before David went to the priesthood session of General Conference. So I had two samples of paint one light gray and one light blue and we didn't like either. And I didn't have time in between sessions to go back to the store so we mixed them together and this is what we got. It's pretty blue but I'm sure it'll look a LOT better when we throw a white and gray bed spread on it. And if it doesn't we'll paint it again.
And because you can see it in the picture I feel like I should explain David's blue nightstand. I got carried away with the extra paint and I hated the natural wood color it was before and now that side of our room looks like some awesome home right out of the 60s. It'll get spray painted white this weekend... not to worry. Hopefully the next picture will not need children to try and distract from everything else. So there it is. It was easy. I mean, really easy. It's not perfect but every night we lay down and talk about how cool we are b/c we made it ourselves and a store bought headboard couldn't do that for us.

Sammy LOVE the headboard!!! Love the color! I think gray cream and a yellow bedding would just make everything look SO awesome. Blues yellows and gray right now are just so hot!! love it.
P.s. I think I saw an AWESOME bedding set at worldmarket.com.
