Since we have a box spring and mattress with no headboard I wanted to make sure that we had something to fill the space. I've seen variations of this pin ; pieces of wood painted in some way and chose to stick with what I found orginially. We had some scrap pieces (after a failed attempt to make shelves) and I laid the 3 pieces out on the floor. I penciled "love" onto the three and painted over it. The pin suggests that you can use 3M strips to fix the headboard to the wall, but I was paranoid about it falling on my head while I slept! We secured it with something more heavy duty, but leave that up to you!
Cassie- when your son to be father-in-law makes over my apartmnet, I'm going to use this idea. Love sHELLY
