Our First Headboard

About This Project

My husband and I finished our first project together.  It was odd having him around in the garage, but I tried to not freak out too bad.  He was so excited, until we were about three hours into sanding.  Little did he know, that I would be sanding all week long.  He spent the rest of the time busy after that.  :)


The project went smoothly.  I think that the headboard is a little low even after I lowered the bed frame by removing the wheels.  I am going to need to build leg extension, but will just enjoy the headboard for a while as is.

OMG! I have those same exact lamps on my end tables in my living room! We did buy plain white shades for them, though :)   So funny!

Love your headboard!
