Created our own King sized Fancy Farmhouse bed (headboard only) using Ana White’s plan! Overall, a well laid out plan, very easy to complete! We went with a two tone color scheme to match an antique dresser I refinished last year. Note: we used nickel gap “ship lap” for the panel of the headboard and used the pocket hole jig to secure the pieces together, traditional tongue and groove probably would have been easier, but I love how the nickel gap looks finished!
