LHOTR - building a bedstead






Shopped for a headboard and haven’t found anything we absolutely love. While driving off to Cadillac to keep looking, the simple thought occurred to me. Why don’t I just build one? 

I’ve sketched a few simple designs and the one that makes me the happiest is reminiscent of a picket fence. I compared my notes against the DIY instructions on Pinterest and I was pretty on point, just have to make sure to sand everything smooth so there’s no midnight splinters.  

So I just need the space to get started.
