More thrift store treasures

Ok, here is another treasure I found for $40 for the set.

Once I got it home I could tell (at least I think I can) someone handmade this (which makes it all the more awesome to me) or there is a manufacturer that likes things more rustic. Either way its got some classy touches and detail work, yet still has clean simple lines, and will fit into my decor perfectly. I have to buy two metal side rails with the hook ends, but that will be cheap.I will have to strip and sand to clean up some of the wear and tear on it

 Its not the best picture as I took it one morning after I pulled the Explorer out. But there are more detailed ones below.

This is a better look at the headboard 

See, maybe some of you carpenters can weigh in on this, does this look homemade or made to look homemade?

Nice routing details, keeping with my need for clean lines....

This is the kickboard on the headboard, you can see it's got the really grainy end of this piece of wood. That was another reason I thought it home made, again I like that.

This it the rail end for the hooked rails. You can see some of the wear and tear that I need to sand out....simple enough....

Little hinge work....

And these button metal disks. This one, you can't see it in the picture, but the nail head is bent to the side a little, another hint to the possibility of being home made or that it came off and was reattached.

So this isn't a major project, just strip, sand and re-stain....and to find the bed rails...

I'll keep you updated...
