I could definitely use a headboard, so have been looking up instructions to make one. I thought I'd post some of my findings.

This site has some great project kits for sale too.

As you can see hgtv has tons. If you do a search for headboards-you'll get tons of pages to browse through.

Wow, wonderful ideas here!

I want a new headboard too i hate mine! thanks maybe someday i will get up the courage to try it.

Thanks Sara, I have been needing a headboard. Now if I can just get the stuff.....:D

This is awesome! I've always wanted to make a headboard after seeing it done so many times on Trading Spaces. They make it look so easy!!!
