West Elm Inspired Headboard

Looking for a great week-end project to spruce up your bedroom? Our West Elm inspired window headboard plans may help!

I loved the look of West Elm's headboard but was having trouble coughing up the almost $400 to buy it. I asked my husband if we could build it. He mistakenly said "sure."

6 hours and ~$60 later we had our headboard. The plans and cut list for the headboard can be found at our blog.

Time: 2 Days Cost: $60 Difficulty: Moderate

I LOVE the headboard, but am more than a little obsessed with geometric shapes;)

Nice job! I think I might tweak this concept & go for the lazy woman's way by creating a headbaord out of a product called Overlays I saw on the Nate Berkus show a while ago. If I do I will share pics!

Your husband said "sure" on the first request???? That's where I started being impressed with this project... It is perfectly lovely. Great work you two!!
