Hi guys! :D Thanks for the positive feedback. Here's my answer to a few of the commonly asked questions: -- Is the headboard mounted: It's not mounted to the wall. I pulled my mattress about 2 inches off the base and stuck the headboard in that 2-inch space between the wall and the mattress. Because it's pretty sturdy, it doesn't move. And you don't really notice that the mattress overhangs the bed frame. Will add a photo to show soon! Cost: If I had to buy the key materials, an approximate cost would be US$160 for wood planks, fabric, foam, batting, spray glue, wood screws. I already owned some of the materials and had the tools on hand. -- Fabric colour and type: The fabric is a very pale lilac and I believe it's velveteen. Yes it's super soft :) Additional thoughts: -- Wood planks: Using the planks made the headboard super heavy so if weight is a concern, you can use a 3/4 inch sheet of plywood cut down into the size planks you'd like or use a lighter but sturdy material. Hope this helps.
I came looking for inspiration to make a headboard, clicked on your video which showed up when I searched, heard your accent 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹-pride, immediately subbed. Love this vid.
Very nice job. I just ordered 2 single bed channel headboards off Amazon for an amazing £34.99 each, and they're surprisingly very well made and look great ! The bed shop wanted £139.00 each for theirs, so I declined. I think this style is much nicer than the quilted button style you see everywhere.
This is beautiful! I may make this early next year but use a foam insulation sheet from the big box stores instead of wood for the planks. Light weight & easy to cut with an electric knife. Thank you for the video, you did a great job!
Hi I really love your personality and how you covered every single step mentioning the 'not to do's' as you go. You are a smart person to have easily figured this out and, you have great taste in fabric. That is velvet fabric. There's silk velvet, cotton velvet and polyester (which is a bit too shinny). I believe you had a beautiful, perfect velvet and I love the color!. I hope you buy some scotchgard from walmart and spray it to protect it from any stains. I want to make my headboard now that you've inspired me! Thank you so much teacher 🙂💝🙏🏼
Gosh, thanks so much for your kind words! You're most welcome. ☺Super glad the video inspired you. I didn't use Scotchgarde on it unfortunately :( but I just give it a clean ever so often. Hope you got to make your headboard. Keep well. 💞💞
I’ve been wanting to redo my headboard but couldn’t settle on a look - then I found this!!! Thank you so much for for the amazing inspiration and for sharing your tips on the process!!!
I'm going to start a job next week,which is making headboards🤣🤣🤣 so I decided to come watch some videos ❤️😍 beautiful job done. I've never done it but I'm good at DIY'S so hopefully the job won't be difficult for me.
Beautiful headboard! I've been looking for something that's tuft without the button look and this is perfect. Thank you for the video and walking us through it.
Oh my gosh this makes me so happy to know! Congrats on getting it done, Khadidja. 💃🏾 👏🙌 Feel free to tag me on Instagram @lifesahmazing if you share it.
@@LifesAHmazing I’m still on hold bec I can’t find a good fabric store to get my fabric from. I am in Illinois and Fishmans and Vogue are gone and JoAnn Fabrics just doesn’t ever have the fabrics I like. Help!!! Lol
@@tfp6382 Oh shoot that's a bummer. You can always use cheap/affordable curtain panels (ikea has some great velvet ones) or even fabric shower curtains. But try looking for a similar fabric in curtains that you won't mind cutting up.
Wow this is the most simple and easy to follow .. love it so much I will follow this when I have my vacation leave in Philippines... Thank you Madam...
That is surely a labor of love! I just bought one on Wayfair for $120. It’s not quite as big as yours but I don’t have the attention span to finish my projects ❤️
First, WOW! Your technique is flawless with that upholstery process! You could've given a professor of mine, and a few former coworkers, a lesson on professional finishing! I just wanted to add since I noticed you using a box knife on the foam, that if you can find a cheap or thrift store electric carving knife, they run through upholstery foam like a hot knife through butter! Obviously they're more critical in places like props shops where you need to do more than straight lines, but they also cut down on time with any regular home projects. Plus, if you have an electric carving knife already, I'd suggest just getting new blades for food and using the old ones for crafting. Make sure to put some paint on the crafting ones just to be safe. 😉👍 Last thought, I know your plan was an adjustable size, but it's also possible to get that effect without needing as much fabric and batting by instead carving the foam and then treating it like a tufting project. If I can find my booklet from school on how to I will come back and share the process. Thank you for creating such a detailed tutorial and showing what really quietly craftsmanship looks like!
Scrolled more and found this version with horizontal channelling. It's not exactly how I was taught to do it, but it's from a professional upholstery company so it's got a super clean finish. Like I said, the downside to this type of technique is you don't have the same level of customizability in size, PLUS, your version definitely makes it easier to change your mind on fabrics at any point in the future.
Thanks very much, Katie! I really try to make my DIYs as professional-looking as possible or else it would bother the perfectionist in me 😄 Yes, re using an electric knife. It would definitely make the project easier. I initially looked for one where I live but decided in the end to just use what I had on hand. But you've reminded me that I still need to pick up one as I have some more upholstery projects coming up. Thanks again for your lovely comment and for sharing your tips!
And I also want to try another one using a different technique that would be easier though not as customizable size-wise. I saw a video where they used that carving technique with the foam across one sheet of plywood. So that's one I'll try next. Have a lovely Sunday
You did a good job. You made it look so easy. I've moved into a new apartment and my goal is to make as many furniture and decor pieces as I can. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks Brianna! Mine isn't attached. But if you want to attach yours, you can possibly use a French cleat (example of what I initially bought is linked in description) but be sure to purchase or make one that can stand the weight. Or you can also add three legs to the headboard frame and have it free standing. Hope this helps. Happy to answer any additional questions
My new project. Thank you fir the inspiration and tips. But I didn’t see how you hooked it to the wall ? Or did you make legs for it to stand on the ground ?
This is an a amazing diy head board I love it thank you for sharing this...now you gave me a good idea for making my own diy head board!💜💜💜💜 I also am a new subscriber!🥰
Hi Anna! Thanks much and yup I see your point. Here's my blog post with the full room reveal: bit.ly/smallbedroomreveal. Hopefully it gives you a better sense. I'm also planning a follow-up headboard video so will be sure to pan out. :)
Thanks Alma. I pulled my mattress about 2 inches off the base and stuck the headboard in that 2-inch space between the wall and the mattress. Because it's pretty sturdy, it doesn't move. And you don't really notice that the mattress overhangs the bed frame.
Thanks much Adrianna! It's a muted lilac that looks slightly grey depending on the light. Wasn't what I was initially going for but it worked in the end. Hope this helps.
@@LifesAHmazing oh my! I would never have picked muted lilac for the colour, looked almost latte. It’s gorgeous. I’ve been considering making a headboard for a couple of years but the colour is the hardest part for me.
@@LifesAHmazing yeah! Colour changes in the room too depending on other decor, wall paint and lighting. That’s also what’s making it hard for me, we have a couple of house moves ahead of us and a potential re-furnish.. I’m tossing between a safe white, or going bold like a pale sage or deep forest green.. maybe a latte. So undecided. I’ll let you know when we figure it out! 😅
NEW SUBBIE To misquote Jack Nicholson as the Joker in Batman... "Where do you get all those great toys?!" 😉🤣🤣 Toys already in Amazon cart 🤣 After relocating, I am planning on redesigning my DIY headband using your design and toys🤣🤣 Thank you for the inspiration Great job and TFS
Hi Kena! The planks are closer to 36 inches long before fabric and about 1/2inch thicker after. I got someone at my local hardware to cut down the 1x6x10 plank into 3 planks with a little piece remaining. But it would depend on the hardware you visit. Hopefully you'll find someone helpful enough to cut it for you. I also used 2 or 3 planks from an old bed frame which were the same size. Hope this helps
Lol thanks! Yes, I've gotten better at holding the drill steady and straight. It was actually my first time using it and I was initially scared of it :D
@@LifesAHmazing that’s what I did years ago when I made mine and it works, now to make one just like yours when the shops open back up. To buy one in the shops are mad expensive
Happy to hear! If I had to buy the key materials, an approximate cost would be US$160 for wood planks, fabric, foam, batting, spray glue, wood screws. I already owned some of the materials and had the tools on hand. Hope this helps :)

I like how you include any mistakes, so that we know what to watch out for VS acting like everything is super simple and you did it in 5 minutes 🤓💜
Thanks Josh! Yes, it's super important to me that ppl see all the sides of DIY projects. There's often lots of frustration, mistakes and remakes 😃

Whoop whoop. Thanks much, Melinda! :)
This is by far the best tutorial came across so far. Thank you!!!!
I had no idea that channel tufted headboard could be so straightforward! It looks so luxe. Thanks for the awesome instructions.
Thanks for watching! You're welcome. Let me know if you try it out 😊
I think it was just as important to see what NOT to do as much as it was how to do it correctly. Good for you for showing that! Looks great.
I love the way you talk. 👍
Thanks :)
She sounds like a Trini
Me too🥰
Me too, where are you from? Love from South Africa 🤍
Trini!!!! 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹

Thanks Alma. I pulled my mattress about 2 inches off the base and stuck the headboard in that 2-inch space between the wall and the mattress. Because it's pretty sturdy, it doesn't move. And you don't really notice that the mattress overhangs the bed frame.

Are the individual planks 6 inches by 32 1/2 inches before foam and fabric? Will the hardwood store cut wood into planks for you?
Hi Kena! The planks are closer to 36 inches long before fabric and about 1/2inch thicker after.
I got someone at my local hardware to cut down the 1x6x10 plank into 3 planks with a little piece remaining. But it would depend on the hardware you visit. Hopefully you'll find someone helpful enough to cut it for you.
