This weekend I refinished my headboard. It's a mantle type headboard that is about six feet tall and six feet long. Didn't turn out like I wanted it to. I painted it an antique white and put an espresso stain on top, then removed most of the stain so there was only bit in the crevices. I did put a top coat on the paint before applying the stain, but unfornutely the espresso stain has a red undertone and turn the antique white paint a nice shade of pink! So I had to repaint the entire headboard. I should have listened to DH and did a test board. Oh well live and learn.
