Door headboards. Granted, 5 panel doors are not easy to come by and when you do find them they are rarely cheap. I was fortunate to be given them from the wonderful family I nannied for.
Dark stain and 4 coats later, it was at dark as I wanted.
I then followed up by a few coats of white paint.
The rest is actual a vinyl covering but I have since thought I want to take it off and actual hand paint it.
The great thing about these doors, they fit any size of bed. You just cut off what you don't need. (Granted, it hurts a little when you do, to sever a perfectly good door and think, "I hope I know what I am doing" but you have to trust yourself. Don't look at it as "this was a $100 dollar door, why would I cut off a fifth of this?" MEASURE, trust and do. Then don't hate me if you screw up horribly ;) Love me when you don't.
