Finished Product: Pottery Barn Style Headboard

I finally finished staining and distressing my headboard.  I am absolutely thrilled with the final product.  The only problem is that now it makes the entire rest of my bedroom seem completely shabby.  I have plans in my head for making a quilt and painting some of my other furniture, but thinking about it all at once has me a bit overwhelmed.  Thanks so much to Ana White and her Knock-Off Wood website.  This project was so much fun.  I am starting to believe that all women need to learn to use a nail gun because it leads to a serious self-esteem high!  I can't wait to settle on another furniture building project!  Although perhaps I ought to take some time out to fold the massive pile of clean laundry on the chair in my room first.

I'm so impressed with your wood projects. I guess if I need a self-esteem boost I'll be breaking out Steve's nailgun! :)

Have you seen my extra bedroom upstairs? That is where I keep all my clean laundry too! Sometime I even go and get dressed in there! But hey sometimes its worth it if you are getting results like that! LOVE IT!

Looks so cute with your bedding. Thanks for getting that going, it was so much fun to make. I got my nail gun, so we will have to do more!!!
