Headboard

This was a pretty simple headboard to make, I kinda followed the plans from Ana-White.com, it is supposed to look line the Mason headboard from pottery barn. Just used 1x4s, 1x6s, glue and brad nails to put this baby together. I wanted it to hang on the wall so I made a cleat to hang it from. From shopping for wood to hang up on the wall was about 26 hours, not too shabby. My friend Jillyn picked out the paint color, I used spray bottle to water it down so we could see the grain through the paint. I added a little black in the corners and put a brown glaze over the whole thing and it was done.
