Michael's New Headboard

While Michael was up at the cabin on Friday night me and Megan made him a headboard for his new king size bed!

We went to Fabric Depot to pick out some fabric then we hijacked his truck to go to Home Depot to buy ply wood and a staple gun!

Here are some pictures...


The 3 layers

Before we got started

Ready to go


After we ran out of staples the first time we couldn't get the gun open again...we had to recruit help from 2 different neighbors


Almost there...


All done!!!


Whole bed


After we finished!


We are pleased with the finished product

Next, we want to paint the wall behind the bed red and the other walls tan!
