The plywood width should match the bed frame you are using. The height is completely aesthetic, I've had some that are 5' tall!  The only thing you'll want to do is add more brackets to the back to support the weight. I hope this answers your question. Good Luck!

hey! I just made my headboard and need to finish it with the nails. Where did you find them? I have searched over 5 stores and cant find them. Thanks!

@mgoehler1 ,

Hi I got my nail heads at Lowes. Did you check there? You could also check JoAnn fabrics. Good Luck!

It's 1/4" plywood. I got the fabric on sale for $35 total. The plywood, foam, nailheads was $80. So about $115 for the whole project.

I really want to post some more it's just a matter of getting the time to do it, on top of client jobs! Thanks for checking it out!
