A simple and tidy headboard


Materials: Vika Amon, Ribba Picture ledge, some screws

Description: I had to change my Malm headboard, for something thin, but convenient. So, I made my first hack...


For a new headboard, it's very simple.
1. Take your Vika Amon Table top and turn it around.
2. Set the Ribba Picture ledge with some screws, many times you like (I put six shelves).
3. Put your headboard between the wall and the bed.
4. Enjoy!

    1. Bonjour Jerry, je suis contente si le hack peut t'aider! ;-)
      pour l'instant je ne rencontre aucun problème, la Ribba du bas faisant office de support pour que le plateau Vika tienne bien droit, et le lit est plaqué contre le plateau, il l'empêche de glisser. J'ai oublié de noter une chose : j'ai ajouté des protections en feutre (comme ici http://www.ikea.com/fr/fr/catalog/products/24155600/) pour éviter de griffer le mur...

  10. Perfect! Not too big to fit in my bedroom, simple enough not to steal the attention from my wall painting, clever enough to hold all the things needed by the bed. I'm so gonna do this. I might even put a fabric on it to soften it a little (I have stone walls so I want to minimize the echo effect). Thank you!
