The Wolf's Den

As promised, I finally have pictures of the headboard that we made while the grandparents were here. Unfortunately, we were so busy making the headboard, that we forgot to document the process. I need to work on that when K isn't around to do it for us. Any way, here are some pictures of the finished product and the room it is in.


Since it is already installed and up against the wall, I tried to get a picture of the back side. I used 1/2 inch plywood and premium grade pine 1X3s. I cut the legs to extend past the bottom to the floor, so we could drill holes to attach it to the bed frame. The top piece goes all the way across both legs. The bottom cross bar fits between the legs. I know its hard to see.

We then covered the front with several layers of fiberfill batting and wrapped it over the top to provide a little cushion and lessen the chance for head bumping. Then we covered it with the heavy blue fabric Theron picked out, and stapled it around the back side. That pretty much did it.



Here are a couple of shots of the made bed and the room it is in - The Wolf's Den. The current occupant doesn't do pictures.
