This headboard is absolutely crafted beautifully!  I loved the look of the white wash; this was a birthday present for my Mom (84) and is a little more traditional with her decor; therefore, I spray painted it pure white! I was concerned there may be damage during shipping, as I wrapped it up until her birthday, to my delight there was no damage at all.  I attribute this to the excellent packing.  Again, the headboard is beautifully crafted, and an excellent purchase for the money spent.  It took very little time to install, it came with the Allen key; I would recommend using the appropriate drill bit to assist putting the legs onto the frame. Enjoy!
