The legs were made from 4" PVC pipe, a 4"->2" adapter for feet, and a 4" flange to mount to the platform.

The legs/feet were painted a silver color to somewhat match an aluminum type of look.


To protect the mattress (double sided), a bit of carpet was placed inside the platform. The carpet was bought as a remnant from my local hardware store for $4 ;)


Once the bed was installed in my room -- I strung some lights behind the headboard. It's hard to tell from the picture, but it is back lit.


Hooray for no foot board :)
