So we bought another drop cloth from Home Depot. (click here for our post on the dining room chair slipcovers we did from drop cloths also) We washed it, used lots of Downey fabric softener in the rinse and dried it in a hot dryer to shrink it. Then we measured, pinned and sewed the cutest dang slipcover for it!
Her room is still in transition, so in the meantime this waits at our house for the big reveal with all the goodies in the room. Soon, we hope.
The dog in the picture is Piglet, their Boston Terrier. She seems to be asking "where's the rest of the bed? I'm ready to jump up for a snooze!"

gasp -- really -- that is wonderful, and I love it. Slipcovers are so naturally soft and gentle. Did you purchase the welting or did you make it with the slipcover material? Hmmm-- I am really impressed with your design and sewing skills.
How cool is this?!? What a neat trick to totally change the look so quickly! Love it!
Thanks for linking up to the party!

I just made a slipcover from drop cloths too! I love the rustic but classy way the fabric looks. The headboard looks just lovely!
What a great idea! Methinks I will be purchasing drop cloths fairly soon . . .
I found my way here from Funky Junk Saturday Nite Special.
I love drop cloth slipcovers, and your idea for the headboard is really awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Please stop by anytime.
This is so charming. You did a wonderful job.
Hi! I came over from the Funky Junk linky party. Boy, these dropcloths are getting more and more exposure as inexpensive home decor! This is the first time I've seen a headboard and it looks great.
great job!
I love drop cloths too. Use them as furniture covers when I go away so the kitties don't scratch.

so love it- I'm going to do the same thing to one of my old headboards- we seem to think alike =)
What a difference. I LOVE the natural tones so serene and lovely. And you really notice the femine shape and curves of the bed now. Thank you for linking up to Thrifty Thursday this week, and as always thank you for being a friend in Bloggeritaville.
