Build a Reclaimed Wood Headboard, Full and Twin Modifications

Absolutely wonderful bed and plans!!!

Beautiful! Does anyone know what bedding she has?

Wow.

I wasn't really a fan of this headboard (I prefer the farmhouse) but after seeing this picture I may change my mind. Beautiful!

Christine, the bedding is Shabby Chic for Target.
Thank you Ana for featuring my bed. I couldn't be more proud of it right now!

Your "visit Nicole's post" or something like that link doesn't work. Just so you know!

Thank you so much for these modifications. I was just talking about making this bed last night and wishing there were plans for the full size. Thank you for all your inspiration.

Ana, is there any chance you are going to post the plans for the Mason Bedside Table featured in the PB picture?

Thank you for your posts and all the work that goes into them, you inspire me!

THANK YOU!! Nicole your room and headboard are Gorgeous!!

Hi Anna I'm from Argentina, we use the metric system here, I was wondering if you could tell me how thick is a 3/4 MDF Board. Here we have 3, 5.5, 9, 12, 15 and 18 milimeter thick boards. Which one do you think is best for the projects? Thank you so much! I love your blog!

I would guess the 18mm thickness for the metric.

what kind of wood and what color stain was used...I LOVE THIS BED!!!

Hey Ana! You're amazing and so creative! I was wondering on the bed head board, do you attach it to the bed frame or to the wall?

Melissa, you can do both. The bed frame is easy to attach to the headboard - there is a spot in the headboard legs for bolts.

Ana the link to the King cut list is not working. Would love to see that list. Thanks!

Debbie, here you go! Thanks for your patience with me.

i tried craftysisters-nc.blogspot.com in the past and i like it, just keep it up!

i am sorry if i wrote in wrong section and please admins to move this to another place.

i am find ways to make money on the net. what posibilities we have? have you ever tried survey sites? i
t seems to be easy to make money. i found myhotrevenue dot com in my searches. IS this legit? anyone know?

If i wanted to build a whole bed like this how would i do it....

do you have instructions on how to make that for a queen size bed?

Thanks.

Cannot wait to build this with my husband. This is the perfect bed for our guest room!

how would you modify this for a kind size bed?

I built the King Sized version, and LOVE it. The instructions were great. NOW. I have a very low wooden bed frame and mattress set - the mattress tops out at 20", which leaves a 1" gap between the mattress and the bottom of the headboard. That's not an issue...except that it makes the headboard rather flimsy, as there's nothing to hold it up right now except the bed frame pushed up against the legs. I can certainly drill holes and bolt it to the bed frame...but will that be sturdy enough, without the mattress to brace the rest of the headboard? It's going to mark up my wall, and we don't want that...help?

Just wanted to say thanks for posting this design. I made two for my girls this weekend, varying the height a bit because I thought the default was a bit high for twin beds. The results are great, and the girls love them.

Here are some pics:

Love the headboard, any way of making an entire bed? (footboard, etc)

I see in the materials list it had screws, nails and pocket hole screws? But I only see where the nails are used. Am I missing something?

Because I used some less expensive wood, I was faced with bowing of the 1x4's and 1x6's on the panel. To resolve this, I ran 2 1x2's down the backside of the panel - placed about one-third of of the way from each side. Then I placed 1 1/4" in screws on the backside down the 1x2's into each 1x4 and 1x6 removing the bowing.

I used the twin bed measurements but when I went to attach the existing metal bed frame to the headboard, the metal frame was narrower than the bedframe legs.

I slipped in a 1x6 between the grooves in the legs-secured by glue and pocket hole screws. I then attached a second 1x6 to that to make it flush with the headboard legs - secured by glue and 1 1/4 inch screws inserted in the back.

That "stringer" permitted me to securely attach the bed frame to the headboard.

I know this is an old plan but if you are looking for an easy headboard, I would suggest this plan. I built it in an afternoon, but that doesn't include the finish. I used screws for the whole plan except the sides of the legs, much easier than nails, and sturdier also. And on the top 2x4 piece, I used 3" screws that I countersunk, so the holes can be filled and won't show. Also, as someone suggested, I used two 1x2 on the back for bowing because I actually used old garage shelves that were 1x12, and I wanted them flatter. It came out very nice and feels very solid.

I love the plans for the headboard and love the look!! One problem, the board are about two inches too far apart to bolt to the bed frame..tried two different frames and same issue. We fixed it by adding another piece of wood to lay across the legs and just bolted it to that. Make sure you measure your bed frame before building!!
