No-Sew Headboard

Do you long for the rich, plush look of an upholstered headboard but either can’t, or don’t want to, go through the hassle of sewing? If you said, “that’s me,” then this DIY headboard might be right up your alley. Requiring no sewing at all, this project can take a drab old headboard, and turn it into something really special.

To achieve the look, take an old headboard and attach your choice of upholstery fabric to it, using a staple gun. To give it that classic boudoir feel, you can attach some foam to the board first, and then wrap it in a deep, jewel-colored velvet or brocade. But, why stop there? You can even hot glue some faux jewels around the edges, to really give it extra pop.
