Beachy King Bed

Submitted by JessiMae on Thu, 01/01/2015 - 18:01

Hello, everyone!

I'm new to the forums, so I hope that I am in the correct thread. Please bear with me while I try to figure everything out. :)

My husband and I are interested in trying our hands at a DIY king bed frame. We are--and I cannot stress this enough--complete novices, so we need something that would be relatively simple and straightforward. After hours--countless, countless hours--of browsing on Pinterest, I came across this nifty frame:

(I apologize for including a link instead of an actual photo--I have yet to figure out how to do so. Is it possible?)

I am in love with this bed, but could do without the elaborate posts. Would someone be able to replicate this, in a king size, with more basic posts? Also, would this be simple enough for two beginners to tackle?

Thanks to anyone and everyone who can offer help, suggestions, and/or encouragement!

* I have searched the plans on this site a thousand times over and don't recall seeing one like this, so I hope that I haven't created a new topic for naught. If so, forgive me.
