The Headboard

I had a really hard time getting a good picture of the headboard. Since my camera is broken I was using my moms and I couldn't figure out the flash, so all the pictures make it look really dark. It does have a dark stain on it but it's not quite as dark as it looks in the pictures. It's just dark brown. I wanted to do the middle piece of wood bead board but apparently there is no such thing as stainable bead board, it only comes prefinished or with a veneer on it, according to Home Depot. And it's extremely expensive. We finished this whole project for $50. I thinks that pretty dang good. So here are some different angles of it, it's massive and makes our bed look huge, I love it. Michael did a very good job crafting this amazing piece of furniture. Thanks Mikey! He's now working on projects for other people, so if you have any requests he would love to make you something. It's his new hobby.

That's awesome! Does it hook onto the bed or do the legs hit the floor? He did such a good job!
