I was looking for something a little different to use to dress up our front entrance and give a little more curb appeal. This headboard headboard I found instantly inspired me. I hope you get inspired too with this easy project.

This is an old metal headboard I found for $50. I took it home and got to work!

Since I love hydrangeas I looked for bunches instead of single stem flowers to save some money. My local craft store had these for half price. $7 for a 6 flower bunch. I used 3 white and 2 white. The silk flowers hold up very well in the rain. I used 4” zip clips to hold them together.

Using 8” zip clips I attached the flowers to the frame. No wiring. Super easy! I placed them on the edges, but you can choose to place them anywhere you'd like.

I zip clipped the frame to my wall. I know it’s hard to see the headboard but I’ll bet against a solid background it would really pop.

This was an easy project. Have fun, and I hope you like what I did.

      Thanks Wendy. I think I’m going to paint the frame a light blue, it may show up better.
