Unique Headboard Bench

by Gail--My Repurposed Life

My friends at Homeright asked me to bring something to the Haven (blogger) conference. I decided that it should definitely be a headboard bench, since that's sort of what I'm known for.

This is the headboard. I've had it so long, I'm not even sure where I got it. But being a twin sized bed, I knew it would easily fit in my car for the trip to Atlanta.

Of course I used my Finish Max to do all the painting on this headboard bench. I used Heirloom Traditions Chalk Type paint-yes, you CAN use chalk paint in this sprayer.

This is the frame of the headboard bench, ready for another coat of paint in the Spray Shelter.

I loved the bench, but I with Katrina--want a tent. Where did you find it?
