‘It’s Not Metal!’ Headboard

Don’t want to put too much effort into your headboard, but want to have something that looks great? Well, this is the one for you. Just like the “Sail off to Sleep” headboard, this one is made using PVC pipes, painted silver. So, head back out to your favorite hardware store to grab the right supplies, and you’re already halfway done. Pro tip: just like many hardware stores will cut wood for you, they will also cut PVC pipes to whatever size you need.

Once you’re home, coat the pipes with silver paint, let it dry, and then put them together. Next, wrap some string or twine around the headboard in all different directions, finally adding clothespins to the string. What you pin to the headboard is your choice, but a few postcards or photos would be a great addition. This industrial-inspired look is great for guys or gals, and those who love to travel and want a fun way to show off their pictures.
