We offer 20 ideas for making a headboard yourself. Whether for a child's room or an adult bedroom, and whether the style is raw, rustic, or modern, there is a decorating idea to suit every room.
Headboard for the bedroom
Match the design of the headboard to the room's decorating style. In a modern bedroom, you can create a photo wall or a bulletin board above the bed. Wall shelves are also practical. Rustic interiors leave plenty of room for imagination: hang an old fence section on the wall or build a headboard from wooden pallets. Ruffled curtains behind the bed will emphasize a vintage mood. Traditional rooms benefit from paint, and even leftover wallpaper can be used to update an old headboard.
Headboard ideas for the nursery
In a child's room, the headboard should be creative and colorful. A map, a canopy, a bulletin board – let your imagination run wild and involve your child in the design. Original headboards can also be customized with LED string lights, creating a starry sky above the bed. If several children share a bedroom, you can decorate each headboard with the first letter of the child's name. Be inspired by these unique ideas!
