Let me start by saying, if I can build this so can YOU! I needed a headboard to complete my guest bedroom and came across Ana White, Knock Off Wood.
She has TONS of DIY furniture plans with a lot of simple, clean
designs and Pottery Barn inspired looks. I choose the Pottery Barn Mason Headboard plan. Find the cut list and all the instructions you need here: Ana White, Knock Off Wood

Inspiration:
Start by making all your cuts (except the top and front trim). Glue and nail pieces together using wood glue and 1.25" and 2" nails.
Stain...wipe on...wipe... off. Seal with poly.
Attach to headboard using 1 1/4" long x 1/4" thick bolts and nuts.

Oh my, I am so excited to make one of these. I have been needing to make a headboard for my son's room because he just got a queen bed. I love how simple and he will think it is masculine enough for him. You did a great job.

I've been needing a headboard for the longest time, like the entire ten years I've been married. I love how yours turned out. I will have to send my husband a link:)
Thank you for joining us at A Crafty Soiree! I hope you'll come back next week and link up again!

Thanks for linking up to Fab Friday -
Cheers!

It looks AWESOME! You did a great job! I can't believe what a huge difference a headboard (and some super cute accessories) make, it totally completes the room. That "after" pic looks like it belongs in a B&B brochure.Its cool that you included a pic of yourself at work with the saw. I like it when people can see that cute girls know how to use power tools too. I think a lot of people expect some big burly girl. :)
