It's hot out there! Here are a few quick tips to help keep you cool this weekend:

1. When is the last time you changed your air filter? Your A/C is working overtime in this weather; Make sure it can breath properly.

2. While you are changing that air filter add 10-15 drops of peppermint or eucalyptus essential oil directly onto the air filter. Every time your A/C turns on it will fill your home with a cooling scent. ... See MoreSee Less

General Outline- This is where we want you to get creative and personalize this bed for you and your space.

Use 5 straight spruce 2x8’s, rip off the bevels using table saw in order to give them more of "plank" appearance. Sand away any splinters or rough edges.
Measure mattress, leave a minimum of 1” on either side to tuck blanket in and 2” at headboard (1” for headboard and additional 1” room for mattress).
Stain colour of choice, let dry. Apply satin finish, water based or oil depending on preference.
Attach all boards using 3” low root screws (*do this step in bedroom as this will be a very wide and heavy bed).
Attach foot board to side boards from the bottom using straight metal brackets with 1" wood screws. This will minimize visible screws holes.
Personalize your Headboard- Straight Planks!? Chevron!? Shaker Frame!? Have fun with it!
Once the headboard is assembled, attach to frame using zinc corner braces.

As stated above this is simply a general outline to get you started. If you have specific questions our lumber sales team would love to give you a hand with your next DIY project!

**Special thanks to one of our many talented employees and her husband for letting us share this DIY with all of you!
