"This used to be my headboard back when my bed was on this side of the room. It was sort of a harvest gold color before, but I painted it a baby puke green because that's one of my favorite colors. What makes it look like art is how confidently it's displayed in the room. The bold color choice immediately draws your eye to it, making it feel intentional."
"If you're about to upgrade from a wall-mounted headboard to a full bed frame, think twice before donating or selling it on Facebook Marketplace. With a little imagination (and maybe a touch of paint, like on Gretchen's), you could turn the piece into a work of art that can be displayed virtually anywhere. I could see it above couches or credenzas in dining rooms - basically anywhere!"
Gretchen transformed her Portland apartment by repurposing her old wall-mounted headboard into artwork after moving her bed to a wall with windows. She painted the headboard a bold baby puke green color and displayed it prominently above a seating area, where it now occupies nearly the entire wall. The piece looks intentional and artistic due to its confident placement and striking color choice. Rather than discarding or selling old wall-mounted headboards, homeowners can creatively repurpose them as decorative art pieces. With minimal modifications like paint, these headboards can be displayed above couches, credenzas, or in various rooms throughout the home.
