The ‘Sail Off To Sleep’ Headboard

This PVC pipe headboard is so easy to make. And perfect for a teenager’s bedroom. Not to mention a great way to show off their love of boats or the beach. Or, if they’re into sports, you can paint their favorite player’s number—or their own number, if they’re on the high school team—on the sail for a more personalized touch.

Just grab some PVC pipes and joints from the hardware store, and paint the pipes silver to give the frame a metal look. To finish it off, take a small piece of boat sail, or a sheet of canvas fabric, and fasten it to the frame with the help of some rope and grommets. The great thing about this headboard is that it’s light, and easy to move if your teenager suddenly decides to re-arrange the bedroom.
