Bright Lights, Big Statement
Bring romantic ambience to your bedroom with a headboard
that glows. Build a simple wood frame from 2x4s, and add crossbeams to
create as many light "frames" as you like. Drill small holes
in the bottom of each opening. (Make sure the holes are
large enough to feed the light cords through.) Paint your frame,
then attach it to the wall, screwing it into the studs.
Fill each space with lights, connecting the cords as you go.
The translucent panels were cut from polycarbonate sheet
and affixed to the frame with screws. If you don't
want to cut the polycarbonate yourself, have it cut to
size at your local home supply center.

tidier look, find letters of the same size and color and
spell words or phrases.
