I found a vintage, pink, vinyl, diamond-tufted, king-sized headboard and fell in love.
Love at first sight can have it's problems though. Pink headboards are probably best reserved for little girls. Most little girls don't have king-sized beds. Hmmmmm.
So, I paid a visit to my nearest auto parts store and picked up a can of spray paint. Yep, paint made specifically for car interiors of the "pleather" variety. I chose black.
The end result makes me want to grab an old motorcycle jacket and go for a ride!
I'm so happy with how it turned out!

Wowzers That is seriously sexy Lori! Now I want to kick myself for passing up an ugly pleather chair a few weeks back. I could have painted it!!!
ReplyDeleteOh gosh...I never thought about getting spray paint from an auto parts store for upholstery. You are brilliant! That headboard is to die for and you are right - it makes you want to rev up the Harley. :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing!!!!!!!! Can I have it please????? I forgot all about using Spray Paint from an Auto Part's store. I have a friend who does that and that stuff sticks like glue. This turned out soooooo good!
ReplyDeleteWow, this is gorgeous! I kinda thought the pink was tacky, but the black looks unbelievably classy!
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous! Love the black color, it makes it feel so classy and luxurious!
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of the hollywood regency style! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI was going to say the same thing Kahli said - but I'll say it anyway lol
