Headboard Underlayment, by Monique

Description

Behind the bed we have concealed a control box by means of a cove/headboard consisting of three plates of Underlayment. We have concealed the grounding for the bedside lamps and the telephone charger in this cove. Functional and beautiful!

How did you make the headboard?

First we made a digital drawing of the intended end result. We then had the Underlayment plates cut to size and mitered. We attached the corners together using: metal corner profiles. We were able to easily assemble the reading lights and phone charger and they came from IKEA. The headboard is not attached to the wall because it is stuck between the wall and the bed. The next step is to lightly sand the whole thing and paint it, so that it is removable and does not yellow in the sun.

What are the dimensions?

The dimensions are 240.0 cm x 120 .0 cm x 20.0 cm
