i need to make a double bed with a head and footboard into a queen. i've heard that there are kits on the market. i've also seen on "martha stewart" that you can insert wood onto the headboard and footboard to enlarge it.any tips?

If you will post some detailed photographs of the head and foot boards, we can tell you how to convert them to a large size. With the right tools and steps this will be straightforward to do.
Hope this helps.
