You can make your own headboard for your bed according to your taste. There are many types of headboards that can be made. Some of them are custom padded headboard, lace-textured headboard, foam padded headboard, tufted headboard, and upholstered headboard. Before you start making your headboard you should have the right tools with you like, tape measure, plywood, sandpaper, saw, batting, muslin, fabric for decoration, screws, staple gun, braid, electric drill etc.
Having these in place you have to decide the height and the width of the headboard. Then decide on the shape of the headboard with the help of the pattern that you have in paper. Then cut the wood in hand to get that shape with the help of a power saw. You might need to cut legs if you want to raise the headboard to the correct distance. Use sandpaper to sand around the edges and then staple the upholstery foam to it. Use upholstery batting to cover the foam. Staple it to the back of the wood. Now attach the legs if needed. Thus you can make the headboard according to the design in your mind.
