My wife and mother in law are turning our hunting cabin into some sort of fancy lodge one room at a time. I scrapped some lumber from a dilapidated barn on our place in Houston county and brought it all the way across Texas to Junction. The wife wanted me to make her a headboard and I obliged. This was my first try at any type of furniture making and I don't think it turned out too bad.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

That looks awesome! My mother did the same thing to our hunting cabin. It's known as the "Mansion by the River" according to the locals in town. Women though… Can't live with em. Can't kill em.

I wish my wife would let me put scraps in the house. Be a lot cheaper. But she ain't a redneck.

If you had the OP's obvious ability to transform 'scraps' into art, your city wife might not be so narrow minded? As in the words of Picasso "Art is the elimination of the unnecessary”.
