It appears to be a light (colour and weight) clear pine which was attached to the front part of the bed frame.
It was hinged to the bed frame, covering a narrow storage space behind which was shaped allow it to lean backwards by about 10 degrees. The back is therefore slightly curved.
It does not appeal to me so I have replaced it with something plainer.
Note that this is a timber part that fits onto a frame that fixed to the bed frame. It is not the whole headboard.
Dimensions:
width=1490mm
height+ 640mm (centre), 530mm (sides)
Thickness=35mm (frame)
Pickup is Takapuna (Huron St)

Aged 18 years and above, and currently taking a medication to help manage your cholesterol, and have experienced cardiovascular events such as heart attacks, strokes, or block artery procedures

It was a very hard decision but we've chosen our winner of the Best Backyard Build as Todd Haswell of Raureka. Congratulations, Todd!

His entry reads:
A couple of years ago my wife said "Can you make me a cuppa tea area down the back? Something with a cover over it."
Me being a graphic artist by trade, I went overboard and made this. Most of the timber is offcuts or leftover from years of not throwing anything out. The doors are from the old Napier Hospital. The two side ones open up on top like stable doors. At night lights come on in the windows (solar), which makes it look like a little house. However the back wall is the centre door.
We think his entry is very creative and impressive. Give this post a Like if you agree!
This wraps up our Backyard Awards - we hope you enjoyed taking part and seeing your neighbour's creations.
