Headboard Bench

I picked this headboard off the curb a month or so ago,

last week i picked up a 4×8×3/4 plywood sheet for $5 and well i figured i would throw something together.

This board was heavy ass hell!! so i started cutting. and made the bench part. I used glue, and pocket holes to hold it all together.

I then put that strip on the headboard to join the bench to it, also used pocket holes here.

I was going to use 2×4 for the legs, but i wanted to keep my project at $5 cost, so i cut the legs from the same plywood, i tapered them and mitered the corners.

I was pretty happy with the results, i am debating on the color, but once i paint it i will post a finished picture.

Very cool idea. Are you keeping it or selling?
