I have a beautiful full size bed with headboard and footboard. The railing is wooden. I was wondering if it was possible to attach the headboard and footboard to a queen size bed railing I have.

Recently, my friend and I made upholstered headboards for our daughters. They are queen sized, but no reason you couldn't do full. She made hers from hone-dec fabric. I used an old mattelasse bedspread. If you are interested, email and I will send you the directions I wrote up.

I forgot to add ONE HUGE DETAIL!!! The mattress height from the top of the mattress to the floor is 29" with a steel frame that is 8" from the floor. Boxspring is 9", mattress is 12." So the bottom of the bottom of the mattress sits 8" from the floor. Most complete beds with a head and footboard are 10+" from the bottom of the boxspring. I would be adding at least two additionalinches to the bed height! That is my DILEMMA! This is what happens when I peruse the forum prior to having my morning coffee!!! Sorry I inadvertently left out this big detail. That is the reason I do not think I can use a foot-board. I don't want a step stool (or ladder -haha) to get into the bed! I know the style of bed I want, but the challenges lies in trying to find that bed with a frame that is less than 10" from the floor.

Update: The frame arrived in 2 days. It looks very easy to install. Yeah! Boo. It is ONLY designed if if you have a headboard and footboard, not headboard only. It doesn't really say this on the website, just says "use your fullsize headboard and footboard" not that both are *required*. So, I will have to return it. They said the return shipping can be expensive, but they are only maybe a little more than an hour drive, so I will drive it back some time next week. Maybe I can find a new queen headboard while I'm there.
