DIY Headboard From an Old Sign

Want a headboard that's worth its weight in style? Try a hefty antique sign like Donna from Funky Junk Interiors did. I love the bit of personality antiques add to any space, and a thrifted sign adds just enough typography to make it perfectly modern.

Donna styled her room with a mix of country decor, but I think it could also work well in a more industrial space. However you style it, the look is sure to make your room stand out from the neutral-footboard-hoarding crowd!

Donna agrees. "Honestly? I'm sure glad I didn't get the headboard/footboard I had my eye on for a long time," she says. "My bedroom would have looked like anyone else's if I had cheated. With a little creativity, I now have something very unique that makes me smile every time I walk in."

Unique, indeed! And all for the price tag of a FREE junkyard sign.
