I had a standalone headboard and I had a handyman secure it to the wall for me using a simple U bracket. The U part is squared like a u and fit around the leg, just under the wider part of the headboard. We used drywall sleeves first, and then screws to ensure it would be well-anchored and we never had an issue. If you have brick or rough stucco or plaster, you might have to anchor it to your existing bedframe. The one I used was very similar to this one...but it was a clean U shape http://www.zillarac.com/Zilla/U-Bracket.aspx

Look for old wood privacy fence boards cast offs or placed at the curb or better yet call your local fence companies or installers and request that they either save it for you or let you know where the old boards are being disposed of. You can usually find a few boards still with enough meat on their bones to veneer a small space with. Use them to veneer an accent wall or a headboard as you might. These could also be re-sawn in half edgewise by a band saw for more of a true veneer. Save the scraps as test pieces for your finish choices.

Many of our customers have the same dilemma... how to visualise the space once completed. With our customer Claire we worked for weeks on designs and layouts for the new kitchen/dining room space until we had it right. We planned on knocking down a few walls and opening and brightening the space whilst adding a gorgeous bespoke kitchen across the center connecting the areas and creating a true heart to what will become a beautiful home. The build is currently still going but we wanted to show you a few before's, the finished renders.. and then let you watch the space come together as we do! Enjoy. This is the property when Claire purchased - it was tired, dark and dated. The L shaped room with current door and window positions made it difficult to fit what the client needed in the space and didn't take adventure of the garden and fantastic views. After weeks of planning and looking at different options the design was agreed and the final 3D images were created to show the client exactly how the space would look - leaving her confident in her decisions on everything from layout to colour. Now the fun could begin! The beautiful new stone floor was laid and instantly gave depth with texture and a brighter more modern feel. New windows and bi-fold doors were added to add light and take advantage of the beautiful views and back garden space. A new door with glass pane leading to the pantry and laundry rooms will add more light from the new windows here too. And then the kitchen arrived really bringing the space to life. We will keep you up to date with the room as it slowly comes to life but please feel free to check out our profile page and see how 3D's can help save hundreds or thousands on your home renovations by allowing you to really visualise the space. Thank you.
