DIY Door Headboard

Turn an old door into a headboard. You’ll first need a door, the one here is a solid wood door that was found at a local salvage yard.  Then add a post to each side of the door.  You can also add a piece of molding to the top of the headboard to give it a more decorative/formal look.  Then paint it whatever color you want and then paint a coat of sealer on it.  You can also sand down the edges to give it a worn or distressed look if you like (which you can see in the up close picture of the top of the bed post in photo 4 ).  This project took a couple of days to complete so it would make a great weekend project! :)
