Rest easy on this simple and sophisticated headboard. Made from peg-board, carpet padding, and a shower
.curtain, this DIY project adds texture and style to any guest room

STEP-BY-STEP

.Step 1: Cut two 1 x 4 x 6 boards to 53 inches long, and lay on a flat surface

Step 2: Create the frame by using the remaining two 1 x 4 x 6 boards as sides, and use the cut 53-inch-long pieces as the top and
. bottom parts

.Step 3: Using a saw, cut a sheet of peg-board to 5 x 4 feet

.Note: This size is for a queen bed. Adjust accordingly for other bed sizes

.Step 4: Place the peg-board piece on top of the 1 x 4 boards, and align the corners and edges

.Step 5: Starting at the corner and using the peg-board holes as guides, drill pilot holes through the 1 x 4 boards

Step 6: Place a 1/4-inch washer over each pilot hole, and attach the peg-board piece to the 1 x 4 boards using wood screws. Repeat every 10 holes until all of the x 4 boards are attached around the edges of the peg-board piece

Step 7: Lay the carpet pad on a table, and place the peg-board assembly on top. Leaving an extra 6-inch drape over the edge, cut off
. excess pad around the perimeter of the peg-board piece

Step 8: Use a staple gun to attach the carpet pad to the 1 x 4 frame, pulling gently to maintain tension. Continue until the pad is secure
. on all sides

.Step 9: Gently turn the assembly over, and spread the curtain fabric over the padded frame

Step 10: Staple the fabric to the underside of the frame, making sure to pull tight. Tip: To pull the fabric evenly, staple in the middle of each side first, and then do a couple more on each side, working outward. Cut away padding as necessary so fabric can be stapled to
. wood directly

.Step 11: Use utility scissors to trim excess fabric after stapling

.Step 12: Adjust corners and fold, stapling as you go

.Tip: Cut away excess corner padding and fabric

.Step 13: Turn the assembly right side up. From the bottom side, find each hole, and punch an awl through the fabric to the surface

Step 14: Using a hex drill bit, drill a hex bolt through each hole gently. Secure with two washers and a hex nut. Continue in a straight
. line around the edges of the headboard, using the peg-board holes as a guide

.Step 15: Attach D-ring hangers to the back of the headboard, cutting away excess pad as necessary

.Step 16: Hang on the wall using appropriate hardware for your wall type

جذبني كثيرا رأس السرير قبل أن أتعرف على طريقة صنعه..

وأحببته كثيرا عندما يستبدل الكرستال بدلا من الأزرار أو الاكسسوار الذي تم العمل عليه فالصورة..

طرحك في طريقة العمل مبادرة رائعه لجهل الكثير طريقتها..خصوصا عندما كانت لي سابق تجربه فيها واعتذار الكثير من المحلات عن التنفيذ لجهلهم..

شكرا كثيرا غاليتي
