I just had to tell you, that I totally fell in love with your headboard design, and I've waited months & months in hopes to finally build it. Well, a few days ago, after buying a new jigsaw, I drew out my plans & bought the wood. I used the same basic design, though a couple slight changes. It turned out gorgeous & I'm thrilled! Especially since I had been without an actual headboard for probably 10 years! (crazy, I know) What a difference a beautiful headboard makes to a room! Thank you for the inspiration. :)
Came out very nice. The only thing I do before staining pine is to use a pre-stain conditioner so the wood accepts the stain more uniformly. However, since you were going for a more rustic look, your project came out great!
Set it against the wall?? So it bangs into the wall when you lean against it? Giiiiirl....lol. It's SOOOO cute, great job, but you gotta attach it to the bed fr.
