Here is an easy project!
I needed a table for my foyer, so I got to thinking....
I called in the handyman (my husband) and let him in on my new plan...that he would have have to build! ha ha
We had an old headboard and footboard, it was not a matching set and I had almost thrown them out a few times. I am so glad I didnt! He just cut the side posts off and glued a board to the bottom of the headboard to make the table deeper. He used a very long screw and went through the top to screw on the side posts for legs! Done. It is now a table! I did add a fresh coat of white paint to the whole thing.
And by the way... I did tell my husband thank you and gave him a big kiss!
He seems to go along with all my crazy ideas and God Bless him for it!
Oh my goodness.... Good News! I have been featured on Bobbypins Boardwalk!
I am delighted , I just love Jan's Blog anyway!

I love this blog Whimsical Musings as you get to some great work by crafters that you wouldn't normally see. This is such a fab project and the table looks glorious. x
Awesome idea! It looks great! ♥
Love the table! I would have never in a million years thought of that, and it's fantastic. If I ever have a spare headboard, I'll know what to do with it. :)
That is a very good idea! Now I need to find a headboard! Thanks for stopping at my blog! I really appreciate it!

Wow. I posted a few months ago about my own headboard/footboard and was wondering what to do with it. Never saw one made into a table. You've given me something else to consider. That looks super!
