So we got a new king bed, thanks to Ty and Liza (Cam's brother and his wife). When we put it up, we decided it needed a head board. Liza had mentioned the "built to the wall" ones before, so Cam did a little research, and decided to just build his own. He is very crafty. So we headed to Home Depot, he bought tons and tons of wood. I had a hard time pictureing it in my head, so I just went along with it. He started the next day, and with in two days, I had a beautiful head board. I never imagined it would turn out so nice. He is amazing, and I love it.
This is the beginning....
Putting up the bead board.
His little helper, or maybe she just kept getting in the way. He was using a chisel to get some of the base board out, so of course, she grabbed the smaller one and starting using a pencil to pound the top of the chisel. She is such a copy cat. She couldn't find a hammer like her dads.
About 1/2 done.
Painting.... don't let this fool you. I actually picked up a paint brush and did help a little.
Finished product.
Side view. I love it. He did an awesome job!!

Wow! I have scene those before, but i think yours is by far the prettiest! Good job, and probably a little cheaper than buying an entire bed just for the head board!
That looks awesome!!! WAY TO GO CAM!! I see Belle didn't take long to make herself at home..
You want to come to New York and make me one...my husband can build a house but ask him to do anything like that and he acts clueless! I secertly think he hates it when I ask him to do stuff like that because he would be busy all the time! GREAT JOB Cam!!
I love the bed! I told Mike to call Cam and learn how to make one for us! It is such a good idea. can't wait to see you guys again soon!
Sage is getting so big! And I commend Cam...the headboard is AWESOME! I hope everything is going well!!
That looks so awesome! I wish my husband was more handy. He is SO not handy. I think that's why he became a Dr... so someday he can either just buy it or have someone else do it for him.
Sage is so dang cute! She gets cuter and cuter as she grows.
can I hire him? Wow! Move over Ty Pennigton- there is a new handy man around!
That is super cute! Sage is super cute.
