Otherwise just attach them one at a time, keeping all edges flush. If you have a Kreg Jig you can start by attaching 12 panels together side-to-side for each section, the attach them all at once. If you have a different size bed, adjust the center panels accordingly.**Step 2: Add the side sections. You don't want any gaps showing above your mattress! Also, if you don't want a wide headboard you can stop at this point for a simple queen size headboard. Just be sure to measure how high your mattress will reach and don't leave out any boards above that point. If you need access space, you can leave off some center panels at the bottom of the headboard. **I designed this headboard to reach all the way to to floor, but when you build it consider leaving some space if there will be an outlet or anything behind the headboard. You can use a Kreg Jig to attach the panels, or drill through the legs with 4' screws and glue. If not, just attach the boards one at a time. If you have a Kreg Jig, you can attach all the center panels together first to create one solid piece, then attache the center posts. Ihave not built from these exact plans, so measure lots to make sure things workout! Step 1: Build the center section. Use the center panels to connect the center posts. Use2 1/2” screws or pocket holes with 2 1/2' screws unless otherwiseindicated.

This headboard would make a statement in any room, but if you adjust the measurements to fill an entire wall in your bedroom it would be a show stopping feature! Let's get started with the headboard. The plans are for a queen size bed, but could easily be adapted to other sizes. This is one of my biggest projects in the series, so I'm going to split it in to two days, starting with the headboard section today.This simple, modern style bed has a unique long & low headboard with built-in nightstands (that we'll tackle tomorrow!). I want to keep it cheap, keep it easy, and keep it totally doable foranyone. In this series, we're seeing what we can make out of2x4s.
