Headboard Reduction


We switched from a king to a queen size bed, which made our king headboard too large. Nothing that some power tools on a Saturday can't handle. We lopped off 6-1/2" from each side and rebuilt the legs.


This is the headboard we made in Lincoln for the ginormous room. When we moved here, we had to cut it down in height so it wouldn't block the windows. Now we've taken it down in width. I didn't want to do it until JP showed me what a new headboard would cost. 


With the money we saved, JP ordered a pair of new nightstands. Yes, I suppose it was worth the effort.
