King Farmhouse Bed

Submitted by DVGofAZ on Tue, 07/21/2015 - 08:58

I followed Ana's Farmhouse bed plans, using 1 x 12 boards for the sides and leaving off the extra piece at the top of the headboard. I didn't want to cover any more of the brick than necessary and I have a large bit of artwork to put over the bed too.

Because my mattress is a Sleep Number bed on a pedestaI I had to add a footboard to keep the mattress from sliding off the end. The footboard is simply a 24x24 section of plywood with wainscoating and 1x2s to match (sort of) the headboard.
