The old floor. This is actually the floor in the hallway because I forgot a before shot of my room. It was painted soft wood. Eventually I'll do the rest of the house.
The new floor! I hadn't planned on installing laminate, but my sister had extra and gave it to me so i figured why not?
To create the headboard I took an old wooden door, cut it to size, framed it with 2 x 4 and painted it. Then i attached it to the wall. Here are the results:
The door looked like this before the construction:
Close-up. It's too bad you can't see much.
I'll be hangning some B&W photos I've taken, but for now I just placed them above the headboard.
I also made the bedskirt and all the cushions as well as the night table cover which you can see in an earlier picture
Finally, I took an old wicker laundry hamper I had since I was 14, fixed it up and repainted it to match. The bottom had fallen out so I "sewed" it back on with twine.

You did a great job.
WoW I'm impressed how great everything turned out. And all I did was a couple cuts on the headboard, but wow.. it really looks awesome.
