Thank for your comment, The head board is 64" tall & 69" wide @ the widest point the foot board is 28" high. All solid Cherry I harvested & milled here on the banks of the Tennessee River in North West Alabama.

Thanks for the stats. The fact that you milled the cherry makes it even more special for your granddaughter. What a family heirloom!

Thanks Jim. Actually I have it in my Basement waiting delivery so I made those short rails just to keep the bed upright (Of course I know you knew that} Thanks Have a Great Day ~ O’Neal
