How to make a book headboard!

Step 1 What you'll need.

• a large assortment of book covers, carefully cut from the pages using an exacto knife or something similar. (These can be found at used book stores or thrift shops.)
• Elmer's Glue-All or something similar - needs to be able to stick to wood and paper and dry strong and clear.
• polyurethane spray for finishing.
• pens or pencils for marking
• something heavy to weigh the books down while they dry
• 3M picture hanging strips for, well, hanging of course!
• a large sheet of smooth plywood that's a 1/4 inch thick and as wide as your bed. Mine was 50 inches wide and around 30 tall.
