Wine Headboard

May 22, 2010 by Bethany Sy

We just finished crafting this sweet wine headboard. Because of the upholstery tacks, it took far longer than we planned, but felt the results were well worth it!

    Hi Anonymous, unfortunately we didn’t do a tutorial when we made this headboard several years ago. Basically we just cut the backboard to be longer/wider and upholstered it before gluing on the individual upholstered squares. Then we hammered in the tacks one at a time. It took FOREVER, and never quite looked straight or professional. We weren’t happy with the way it turned out and that’s why we didn’t do a tutorial on it. We hope you have better luck though. Send us pics when you’re done!

    Hi! I’m making a headboard and love the boarder around the headboard. I couldn’t find it anywhere in the tutorial, just wondering if there were simple instructions on how to recreate it! Thanks!
