Hi everyone! Thank you for all the positive feedback yesterday on the
shed plans [8] - I definitely want to branch out - hehe - and include
more wood projects like sheds and chicken coops and would even love
to tackle a modular home plan at some point! Hopefully before Grace
needs it!

And I did promise you all a headboard to match the grown up platform
bed [9], didn't I?

We considered quite a few options when putting together these plans,
but ultimately, felt a wood framed headboard would be the best accent
for this platform bed. And I am so thrilled how this bed turned out!
My friend Whitney from Shanty 2 Chic [10] built this bed for her sister.
Here's from Whitney:
This was such a fun and easy headboard to build. I think it looks very
adult and expensive, and it is a perfect partner to that great platform
bed. You can easily build it for under $100 which makes it even prettier
if you ask me! I built the entire thing while the babies were taking their
nap. I love how you can personalize it so much with your fabric. My
sister loves it too!
Make sure you stop over and check out more photos and building
details from Whitney on this headboard. [10] And of course, the plans
follow.

General Instructions:
Please read through the entire plan and all comments before beginning
this project. It is also advisable to review the Getting Started Section.
Take all necessary precautions to build safely and smartly. Work on a
clean level surface, free of imperfections or debris. Always use straight
Page 7 of 14
boards. Check for square after each step. Always predrill holes before
attaching with screws. Use glue with finish nails for a stronger hold.
Wipe excess glue off bare wood for stained projects, as dried glue will
not take stain. Be safe, have fun, and ask for help if you need it. Good
luck!
Step 1
[23]
Glue the foam to the plywood carefully, positioned as shown in the
diagram. This is very important to get just right.
Cover with batting and fabric, stapled right to the plywood. This area is
to be covered by wood frame boards. Make sure all staples are pounded
into the plywood.
Step 2

[24]
Now you can either use the Kreg Jig to build the wood frame first, and
then nail to your plywood or nail each board individually to the plywood,
framing the foam piece in center.
NOTE: I did change the center plywood to 1/2" thick to weigh less and
be less expensive to build, so change nail lengths to fit your plywood.
You may wish to use screws so the center panel is removeable for
changing up the fabric.

Step 4

[26]
Followed by top trim.
Step 5

[27]
Moulding to match the platform bed needs to be cut to fit, mitering
corners.
This completes the headboard!
Step 6

To attach headboard to bed, use the shelf support brackets as shown
above. You may also need to attach to wall.
Finishing InstructionsPreparation Instructions: Fill all holes with
wood filler and let dry. Apply additional coats of wood filler as needed.
When wood filler is completely dry, sand the project in the direction of
the wood grain with 120 grit sandpaper. Vacuum sanded project to
remove sanding residue. Remove all sanding residue on work surfaces
as well. Wipe project clean with damp cloth. It is always recommended
to apply a test coat on a hidden area or scrap piece to ensure color
evenness and adhesion. Use primer or wood conditioner as needed.
