I'm in the beginning stages of building furniture for my sons toddler room. I found the perfect headboard for the room too! The only thing is there are not plans for it and I can't see what they did for a footer. Here are the plans I want to use for the bed http://ana-white.com/2012/08/simple-twin-bed [2] BUT I want to modify the headboard to look like this http://www.google.com/imgres?q=baseball+bat+headboard+plans&um=1&hl=en&c... [3].
I'm not sure if you can click on the links I listed above but you can definitely copy and paste them in the browser.
I'm VERY new to making furniture ( only 1 thing so far and I just made it yesterday) but I think I can make plans for the headboard, my main question is, can the header and footer not match and look ok??? I listed both links so you can see what the header and footer will look like. I know the obvious answer might be, just make a baseball bat footer. My only thing is the bats are VERY expensive and the cost will start to defeat the purpose of me making it to save money.
Note: I will also be building the Kenwood bookshelf, nightstands and a dresser (dresser is not a kenwood plan).
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Many thanks,
J
