Shutters, especially if they are nice and tall, make for a dramatic headboard. Add little architectual or decorative pieces to the top to create a nice shape or pediment effect.
The room's soft, powdery blue creates the perfect backdrop to display a wealth of antique treasures, starting from the headboard made from old shutters to the cane settee at the foot of the bed. The pin-tucked bedding makes this restful retreat a great mix of old and new.
As a headboard. A composition of shutters becomes a tall shabby-chic headboard in this bedroom. I especially love this look for a pair of twin beds, using old-fashioned cottage shutters with little cutouts like pine trees, crescent moons and other shapes.
