New Headboard

We finally had to get a new headboard for my youngest son.  He originally had a beautiful antique bed that we had had for years.  It finally met it end a couple nights ago.  Having three boys and antique furniture sometimes is not the best fit! So while my middle son and I were heading to the Island home we decided to stop at some of my favorite shops and look for some accessories for my kitchen. Instead,  I found a fabulous headboard that I could not pass up. I found it at Bay Star, if you are ever in the area you have to check this place out.  It is the BEST!

First, I used easy  liquid sander deglosser because I did not feel like sanding the piece. I chose Benjamin Moore Regal Select Matte Finish in Twilight Zone. I bought both of these products at ACE Hardware.

This is what the headboard looked like when I found it at the shop.

I have never seen a headboard like this before.  I love that it has the cork board and plexiglass sliding doors.  I am sure my son will change it up often but for know this is the finished product:
