My wife wanted to get a new rustic style head board in the Pottery Barn style. Thanks to your site and plans I saved around $800. My wife even made a comparison picture with my head board and two from Pottery Barn. This was my fist major project and ever since I built this, people just come to me with ideas of things to build. Now she wants a matching foot board. I love your site and it's the first place I look anytime I have a project in mind.

Looks great! The comparison picture is fantastic. I made this headboard last summer and we love it too.
