DIY RUSTIC FARMHOUSE HEADBOARD | KING |

- This Simple Rustic Farmhouse headboard DIY was one of my favorites by far. The frame took us no more then 20 mins to assemble. We decided not to attach it to the bed frame so it just sits perfectly between the wall and frame. Best thing about this project is you can tweak the measurements and customize It to your liking. We really hope you enjoy the video and reference back when you are building your own headboard!

I’m going to do this! Thank you guys for sharing! 😊
Came across this video as I was building mine. I was like there, this is what I had in mind. Will be adding 2 lights to the 4X4 posts at the top by the end caps. Thank you. I want to attach mine to the bed and make footboard to match
Yes, I'm making this for my wife for the holidays.... I think you may have just kept me from the dog house, Gold star 🌟. Thanks guys
Lol!! Your welcome 😊
I made a headboard similar to this but used tongue and groove for the center and I spent a little extra and got untreated 4x4s and attached wall sconces on each side. ❤️
Sounds exactly what Im doing. I am scorching mine first before staining.
Brill video, thanks for this. Just bought a new bed and it's arriving in 2 weeks so need to get cracking on the headboard!
Oh yay 🙌🏼! We literally built It in less than 15 min and love It so much! Thank you ❤️
Loved the video. Just brought a new king size bed. On my way to home depot to purchase my wood. Wish me luck...
Oh yay, good luck! We love our headboard and so will you! 🥰💕
Awesome job guys! Thank u!
Very impressive! I MUST try this.
Thank you!
@@SasseeVwhat color stain did you use please and did you use more on the post to make them darker? I love this will be making this weekend!
Beautiful ❤
Thank you! 🥰
Excellent job
Thank you! 😘
Loove it!!!!
Thank you! 😘
Super easy to make. Mine took 30 minutes
Yay - I’m glad It was super easy and quick for you! Same here ☺️
My wife and I want to do this 😎👍 Did you mount it to a wall or attach to the bed?
Oh yay, super simple and you will love it! We did not attach it to the bed but you simply can do so by adding a board to the lower end of the posts and screwing your bed frame to the post :)
Great video! Are the measurements for a king?
Thank you! Yes the measurements are for a king size bed.
@@SasseeV WOOHOO!!! I kept reading to see if someone has asked this question and HERE IT IS. Thank you! I am SOOO EXCITED to build this. I'll see if I can share a picture once done. THANK YOU for such great details and simple design that is elegant and beautiful!
For the 1*8, the cut list says 6 feet. The audio on the video says they are 75 inches. Can you help with this?
Hi there, 75 inches is what I went with which is a little taller but you can do 6 feet which is 72 inches. I hope that helps :)
This doesn’t help. What was your cut length for the 1x8 and what was your cut length for the 4x4
@@TexasForever-tw8kovideo sd the 4X4's was 6ft in length and the 1x8's are 75" in length.
How was it attached to the wall though?
Is there anyway you could make a list of the materials you used - measurements of the wood and the color of the stain you used?
Carly Kane - Hi there! Yes, everything is listed in the description down below 😊
Vanessa Valle has it been there? I’m so sorry! I’m guna give this a shot this weekend. I love this. THANK YOU FOR SHARING
Yes , no worries! I always list everything I use in the video down in the description. Yay, glad you’re going to try it, you’re gonna love It! 🤗💕
Did you guys screw it to a metal frame?
Hi there! Yes we did. You can add another board to the bottom of the bed board and attach to the frame or just leave It as is.
Hey kids nice project ... but don’t use treated lumber to sleep next to. That stuff is not good to have close contact with over time. Kind of toxic stuff, the only toxic stuff I sleep next to is my wife.
How did you connect it to the bed frame?
We added a bottom board to the headboard for stability and screwed The bead frame to the end of both post. I hope this helps 😊
Do you remember roughly how much you spent on material
Hi there, I wanna say roughly between $80-90 for all, even the stain. I hope that helps 🙂
Vanessa Valle It does I wanted to make one myself. Or wasn’t sure to Buy one from someone selling it for 300
NORA LORENZ I totally recommend DIY’ing It yourself. Super easy and It literally took my husband and I less than 15min to build. Best part you can make your own adjustments by measuring the width and height of your bed and depending on how tall you want It to stand. 🙂
You are not really supposed to use treated lumber indoors, it can be very harmful to your family
Pressure treated lumber can be used in any interior application accept for cutting boards and counter tops. We did our research before even considering bringing It into our home. Thank you so much for your concern! ❤️
Are the measurements for a std king or california king? Tia
Measurements are for a standard king bed.
Just be careful with 4X4 posts, the ones that they are showing look like they are treated outdoor lumber, be conscience about using it indoors because they can harm your animals or children (not saying this to be mean but some kids do bite or taste test things) if they try to eat it for long periods of time. Treated wood for outdoor use contains active ingredients commonly used are alkaline copper quaternary (ACQ), copper azole (CA) or micronized copper azole (MCA), Micronized Copper preservatives tend to leach less copper than other copper based wood preservatives. Alkaline Copper Quaternary (ACQ) and Copper Azole (CA) generally leach more than CCA-treated wood. However, the parts that are released into the environment tend to be lower in toxicity. Copper is considered less toxic compared to arsenic that had been the industry standard, although less toxic it can still be a concern to most.
I had no idea! Thank you so much for this information, good to know :)
It can also off gas.
How do you attach the bed frame to the headboard?
Hi there! You certainly can attach it but we didn’t. Ours just sits in between the wall and bed frame.
Vanessa Valle are you able to send a picture of how it’s positioned between frame and wall? Do the 4x4 sit on outside on gram or inside? Sorry- headed to Home Depot in the morning for supplies as you’ve made such a gorgeous headboard look affordable and easy. Just wanting to know how it will stay in place- Thank you!!!
No worries! Not sure that I can send a picture. The bed frame is what’s holding the two post on each side, the frame is in between the wall and frame- if that makes sense. You can definitely add another long board across the bottom to secure It a little more. We have a sleep mattress that moves up and down so the bed doesn’t have the area to attach a bed board to It. If you have a frame that has the holes for It then yes you can screw It to the the posts on each side. I hope this helps. ☺️
What would be the measurements for queen size ? This is beautiful
Thank you 🥰! Not sure what the measurements would be for a queen, sorry. You would have to measure the width of the frame. Also, depends on how tall you want It. I hope this helps. 💜
The green treated 4x4s are copper arsenic they are toxic, when I saw you “buffing” them I was wondering how sick you got .
Please take this down or put in a disclaimer before you hurt someone
It’s not toxic, I asked worker before purchasing.
