about two weeks before we moved, mom and i found a door at a flea market.
its perfect. it has the original hardware, locking mechanism and doorknob on it.
so beautiful.
right now it is leaned up behind the bed that it will eventually be the headboard of.
i have been reading “making a door into a headboard” tutorials all over the internet getting ideas. my aunt kay will be here in october and our focus for the weekend is to make this into something even more beautiful..
like so…

Lou and I had the same idea for a headboard. We bought an old mahogany door at a flea market for $5. After lots of elbow grease and inspiration, it turned out beautiful. I hope you are able to view the link to the picture. Great Blog, Skye! I visit regularly and send links of some of your projects to my daughter in Hawaii.
