Labor Day weekend, Matt and I got started on moving Levi to his new Big Boy room. He loves planes and it was safe territory for a growing boy and we also knew that Jett would be fine in Levi's old room which is done in owls.
Our friend, Jason, hooked us up with several pallets for free!
Matt and Levi got started taking them apart to make a full size headboard
Sweet Pic!
This is what we had that was usable after 4 pallets
We then headed to Ace to get wood for the making the back of the headboard
Levi thought the automatic door was funny
Putting the frame together. Matt is a genius! He can make anything work and put together anything!
Big Boy helping again
This is a rough idea of how it would look
Finishing the frame
Put together headboard. Still needed to be sanded and polyurethaned
The next day, Matt sanded and sanded and sanded until the headboard was smooth enough for little hands
Popsicle break
After sanding
After 3 coats of polyurethane
Completed headboard!
I was in love! Love the rustic-ness of it
We also bought Levi man a new comforter and some orange sheets, his fav color!
Up Next....Bookcase
