King Size Headboard
Upgrade your bedroom with this Modern King Size Headboard with shelves. I built this to fit our master bedroom but you could easily adjust the size of the bed and built it to fit your space. The recessed LED lights are such a great addition, it makes the stained wood stand out from the rest of the headboard. Very simple to build.

Stain and connect the initial boards. There are several pieces of this project that are stained but most wood pieces are painted white. We will start with stained pieces. Cut boards to provided dimensions in the cut list. Stain the boards separately before assembling them together.
Also attach the middle piece of plywood. Make sure its painted white before attaching.
Cut holes for the lights. If you prefer to put LED lights, you would need to cut the holes before attaching the upper board. Also keep in mind where to place on/off switch for the lights. This might require additional opening on the board.
For the piece on top of the headboard, use Nail Gun with finish nails.
Then I just hung it on the wall and that was it!
