I got very inspired with the folks of "This young House". I am finally done with my Guest bedroom, I really just needed a headboard:
So here is what I did:
*I went to an actual art supply store and got canvas stretchers, I measured my bed and for a queen size 60x35 was perfect.
That only cost me $28.
* Then I went to Joann's and picked up Batting, the thicker kind, and fabric.
Note: I did 2 layers of badding on my own headboard.
That cost me $22.
Go home and have fun, have a glass of wine while at it or whichever alcoholic beverage of your choice.
Remember to use your staple gun.
Then go to home depot or a hardware store and buy the hooks to hang the frame. Hang it like a picture. The back of the bed should support the headboard.
Total price, about $50 buckaroos.
Here are my pics...you can use it kinda like a guide.
Hope you like it.

Thanks! I can't believe it was only $50 to make. I'm excited to try this.
