1. Upholstered bedhead
Did you spot this stunning velvet mustard bedhead we shared a little while ago?
You could easily customise this tutorial to suit the your bed size, and try any colour or type of fabric you like. Boucle is trending in interiors right now and would be a great option to achieve a designer look for less!
DIY Shelley made this upholstered bedhead for her daughter and we have the full step-by-step guide here.

2. Chunky weave bedhead
Move over chunky knit throws and take a look at this dreamy chunky weave bedhead!!
The clever ladies at Treasures and Travels say you can create this dreamy headboard in under two hours and with no previous weaving experience.
Check out the tutorial on their blog here.
3. Wall panel bedhead
One of the hottest building materials right now is wall panelling — a fab way of adding texture and interest to plain walls… and a great idea for a bedhead too!
Mikahl made this stylish wall panel bedhead in a weekend and kindly shared all the steps with us. She didn’t attach the bedhead to the wall (it’s just pushed against the wall by the bed) so this could be a fab DIY for those of you who are renting.
4. Plywood head board
Prefer a minimalist look? Then this DIY plywood head board with floating shelves might just be for you!
The team at Mr. Kate shared a detailed tutorial on their blog so even a beginner could tackle this budget-friendly DIY.
5. Faux leather and dowel bedhead
This bedhead design is genius! Using a simple dowel frame, the team at Homes To Love created a contemporary bedhead in faux tan leather.
Of course, you could steal the design and change the type of fabric to suit your interior style. For example felt or even velvet would work just as well.
Watch the video tutorial here.
6. Cushion headboard
Get ready for an IKEA hack from the talented Geneva of Collective Gen.
She covered an outdoor bench seat cushion in denim fabric and added leather straps to make this stylish and comfortable DIY bedhead.
7. Geometric wood headboard
You’ve probably seen more than a few pallet wood DIY bedheads around. For something a little less rustic, we love this geometric headboard idea by I Spy DIY.
For this DIY you will need to be a bit handy with the power tools or know someone who is (requires a miter saw) but the result is so contemporary and fun!
8. Oversized channel tufted headboard
Yes friends, you are seeing correctly, this luxe headboard is a DIY!
Brady Tolbert created this bed for Emily Henderson’s blog and shares a detailed tutorial so you can make it too. Could you imagine this bed in a soft pink or dark blue velvet?!
