I recently purchased the light grey velvet king headboard.  It is gorgeous.  I was able to assemble it myself by laying it on the bed and attaching the screws as shown.  It was very easy.   I was nervous about ordering such a big headboard on line but it can packaged well and in perfect condition.  Don't hesitate on this headboard, you will love it.  I did order swatches before I purchased since I wanted the headboard to blend with my grey walls and add the pop of color with pillows.  Thanks Skyline..You made me a believer...
