Eagle-eyed viewers might notice that this before headboard is ever so slightly different then the one Ashley at Distressed Boutique used for her headboard-to-bench makeover. She forgot to take a before pic, it happens. So, I’m not sure if her actual headboard came with those extra bedknobs on top and she chopped them off herself, or if it was already like that, but I dig it. Makes it look much more benchier, yeah?
Hey, remember that movie Bedknobs and Broomsticks? I verrrry faintly do. Wasn’t it something like a cross between Mary Poppins and Murder, She Wrote? I could be wrong …

January 24, 2013 at 10:38 PMBedknobs and Broomsticks is the second greatest live action movie with animated sequences. That also stars David Tomlinson. Anyway, it IS great.

January 28, 2013 at 3:55 PMWe had ‘Bedknobs & Broomsticks’ on Beta…it was well loved and yes, somewhat like ‘Murder She Wrote’ meets ‘Mary Poppins.’ With extra cartoons.
Great makeover. I want to try a bed-to-bench…maybe after it stops snowing!
