I guess I’ve officially turned this in to a series: posts about what my woodworking partner John has made in his woodshop!
If you want to see other posts on what he’s made they are all under this link – From the Woodshop (it will include this post; after you click on the link, scroll down to see earlier posts).
We did not have a headboard on our bed, we just had a platform on which our mattress rested. John decided to make a headboard for our bed using a design similar to the one he used for making Lazy Susans (see post From the Woodshop: No “Lazy” in the Making of a Lazy Susan):

Here is the headboard in progress in his woodshop:

And here are some images of the completed headboard:



It’s amazing how he keeps progressing on his woodworking journey, all self taught using YouTube videos!
John is very talented, that looks great!

Lovely…what wood did he use? From my limited view of photos and knowledge of wood, it looks like a mix of pine and mahogany? Or pine with light finish stain and dark finish stain?

Thanks so much and yes it feels much better to read in bed with a headboard instead of sitting up against the wall with pillows!

That’s impressive! (Especially because I’ve been married to a woodworker for 50 years and have no headboard!)

I am very impressed. That is not an ordinary, straightforward headboard. As noted before, I think your Woodworker has been infected by your beautiful quilts! 😉
