- Start to finish | how to make your own wood headboard! Including an easy DIY fluted wood HACK that could be added to upcycled furniture pieces.
We used a sheet of plywood, joint compound, scalloped cake decorator, honeycomb sherwin williams paint, minwax cherry gel stain and golden oak stain to DIY this headboard. In this video we created a budget-friendly headboard for a large bed . We did not mount the headboard on on the wall it's made to stand on the floor and is pushed to the wall with the bed. I hope you like it :)

Wow! I am really impressed - no one would ever guess it was an inexpensive diy! I appreciate your creativity, your patience, and the fact that you credited another for the painting technique. Great job.
Thank you so much Jen Jen :)
I think the stain looks good. Great job and thanks for sharing the process even the mistakes because most ppl edit out the mistakes so I appreciate that you kept them in.
Thanks girl! I'm so happy to hear you like the stain! :D No prob! I'm glad you like the raw footage :D
You are a God sent!!!! You have no idea how long I've been looking for a way to make fluted accents to my furniture without spending a small fortune. Thank you so much, I just subscribed 💕
OH YAY!!! This will be perfect for that! Glad you found this video and welcome to my channel :)
This was brilliant!!! You did an amazing job on this. Wow I am so impressed. It really looks like wood.
Thank you so much Marla :D
This is a genius hack for a fluted bed! It looks awesome!
Thank you so much Crystal 🤗
That is amazing. I thought it was real wood, my first thought was the cost of wood at the minute. It's genius.
LOL My thoughts exactly when I decided to make this headboard! Wood is so expensive right now! Glad you like the idea. Thank you
As a cake decorator, I automatically knew someone used cake as an inspiration, good job!
Oh my girlfriend you did it BEAUTIFUL 😊 Awesome job, I found my new headboard 💕(King size) & it good seeing you & your husband working as a team 💯. Question - how's the headboard holding up now? Thanks
So glad you liked it. It's held up so well. So far only two tiny dings. I didn't get around to touching them up yet. They are so tiny if I touch them up you won't see it at all. I think its literally just tiny paint chip.
U need to mix the compound very well before using it that takes care of the issue u had with the bubbles coming up.
Hi Everyone! I hope your weekend is going great! I'm finally sharing our DIY headboard :D Hope you enjoy 😀
You did a great job.
I love it!
Now i want to make one....lol
Thank you so much Christy! You should make one 🥰
I am the same as you...been dying to do the wood but balking at the wood prices! This is AMAZING! I use joint compound for EVERYTHING so why didn't I think of this??? Thanks so much!
i love this!!! thank you for explaining all the ways to make it better :)
Brilliant! Super creative! It looks great and very spot on for MCM!
Ouf, love the cut in cost (tbh I was debating on using wood trims for my project but this video challenges my initial thoughts)..one thing I was wondering, how did you fix it into place? (I would’ve loved to see a clip of that as well, but perhaps you could explain it with a comment)
a lot of the time bed frames will have holes to bolt/screw on a headboard to, but it will depend on how your frame is built. Another option ive seen done is literally just screwing the legs of the headboard to the wall with one screw near the floor and one right up close to where the headboard itself starts but thats not as practical if you rent or move your furniture around.
brilliant and looks amazing! I really feel like the orange tone you were disliking wasn't the stain. i think the base paint you used was pretty golden, causing the red tones in the stain to pull more orange :) that or i was find a stain that has more neutral tones to balance the golden tones from the paint! hope this helps
this looks amazing! i think i would paint it pink or a fun color but your wood technique was great!
Amazing. Like SERIOUSLY.
Oh...my god this looks incredible! You should be very proud! The colour is amazing!!
Thank you so much!!
I love it! It looks amazing!! Thanks for sharing
WOW what a fantastic idea! Such a criminally underwatched video. Thank you so much for sharing not only the DIY but the inspiration and sources!
Great job it looks amazing
I really love this idea and going to try and recreate it for my bedroom. Thanks so much and wish me luck!
You're a genius!!! I have a beat up secretary MCM desk that I'm brining back to life, but the back panel has a huge vertical crack (pretty sure it was intentional to run cords through it). I thought about using pole wrap but it's hard to find these days and kinda expensive, so I'll probably attach a fluted panel using your technique!
That's amazing! It's a little orange for my taste but I think just replacing the big pillows against the headboard with white or something neutral and light will look nice, lighten it up and provide contrast. I love the other 2 matching pillows with the color of the headboard. Very impressive
This is the second of your tutorials I’ve watched and gosh again you did a fantastic job. Super creative. I’m going to keep watching now 👋
this is amazing!! would you guys consider doing a comission? i dont have the tools but this is exactly the kind of headboard im looking for!
Hyy I am from India
Absolutely fantastic. Time well spent.
Thank you for giving me a great solution to get rid of that terrible 90s knock-down wall texture they used when they built my house! I’m not sure it would look good on every wall, but I’ll be def be doing a fluted feature wall! Ty!
That's awesome to hear this was helpful! you're very welcome
So glad RUclips suggested your video! I have a similar idea to do up my living room
Wall. I’m not going for the wood look but vertical organic lines with hand after applying joint compound and since it’s a big wall I want to do it over a sheetrock. I think it could be done directly on the walls but I’m afraid I could damage my walls so I thought of using Sheetrock, that way if someday I need to get rid of it it would be easier.
After seeing your video it gives me assurance that what I was thinking is quite possible.
I do like the stain color but if you think it’s too orange maybe go for rustic oak color. That would look great as well.
YAY! I'm happy to hear you came across my video. I think this would look awesome on a wall. I would suggest having the Sheetrock set up to where you don't move it much after to avoid cracking.
Yeh I think something more neutral toned would be better.
How did hang it on the wall? Looks gorgeous as is!
This is amazing and I plan on trying it on my own. Quick question, how durable has it been? I'm often resting my back against my headboard and am worried that the compound will not last.
Its definitely durable enough to rest your back. Doesn't dent very easy. It feels just like sheetrock.
I'm concerned with bumping it and it cracks or crumbles. Have you noticed any issues with that? It's such a unique idea and looks great but after all the work i would hate for it to disintegrate after one wild night... Or day. 😜🤭
No cracking at all so far. Our little guy bumps into it all the time while jumping on the bed. It's held up super good.
Is he a vampire? 🦷
Is that sookie from true blood?
I ran into the same problem with the price of trim and honestly this is such a brilliant idea! I’ll be doing this over the weekend. Thank you so much for sharing this! 🙏🏽
Yeh prices are crazy especially right now! YAY! Can't wait to see tag me on insta if you want. @lilyardor would love to see.
How did your headboard turn out?
Very impressed. Just curious about how much it weighs as I would have to carry it into the bedroom from the garage myself. Also, I am a little concerned that it could crack and maybe fall off in transporting. Does it stay on good?
this is the coolest thing!!!!
I love this video.
I just purchased my first dream home and I was so excited.
Until I realized all the decorating and how I had to fill the home with furniture. Lol
Forgot about that part.
But the look I want is “Boho-African”. I want it to be done in a minimalist way and to be comfy.
I e decided I would feel more complete if I can save money and do it myself.
I had to cut corners on my bedroom set so the one I purchased it not the right color or look.
You have really inspired me and relaxed my mind since I now know I can change it up whenever I want.
I’m going to do this exact headboard.
Thanks all the way from Georgia!
Just amazing. You are so creative!
You did a great job, at first I thought it was real wood. I want to try that. Tips. Used a whitewash over it. You can make by mixing 1part paint 2-3parts water or you can used a white wax over it.
this is so fun thanks for sharing!
Just wondering how your headboard has held up now that it’s been a couple years? I’m considering doing this to mine, it looks awesome I’m just curious if it’s durable😊
Held up really good just a few Knicks that need touching up 🥰
@@diylilyardor3435 thank you!! That’s great to hear :)
Why would you not use pole wrap instead? Way easier and less chance of chipping off or flaking?
This was a beautiful job by you and your husband. Turned out really great.
Wow, yours look way better than the Pinterest inspiration! What about framing it with wood at least the top to finish it off? Lovely job!
I think that the joint compound will easily chip if you sit up against it.. how is it holding up?
OMG that is GORGEOUS! 😍
Thank you so much Melissa :)
Still square? Or did the 1x and/or plywood warp as it dried and aged?
I love that you did this together
AWE thanks Rebecca! Glad you loved it!
Wow!! What a job!! However a job well done!! I love the finished project!! I want a headboard on our king size bed though I've not decided on the look/design yet. Thank you for sharing your journey in creating your headboard. I greatly appreciate it. 😊
Thank you so much! :D So glad you loved it!
How do you attach it to the bed??
This is awesome! But how did you attach the headboard?
Thanks girl :) . I didn't attach it. The 2x4 frame has legs so it's just leaned against our wall with bed pushing it up against the well. Hope that makes sense.
Love this. What would happen if you added antiquing wax to tone it down?
Good job Lily!
That looks freaking awesome! Love it!!😍
😬 thank you so much
I Love it, you three are way to cute 😜👏🏻❤
Awe thank you 🤗
Amazing result !! I want to do this for my room now !!!
It's beautiful. I luv the color.
Thank you Ruthie :) The color is definitely growing on me. Your feedback means alot :)
Just wow, amazing idea, turned out so cool!
omg awesome project
That looks great!!! I really like the color
I love the look of the headboard but all I can think about is all the dust being trapped in the crevices
Thank you :) It's really easy to keep clean. I wipe it down with a damp fluffy cloth and it's good to go.
Very clever idea
Wow! Genius! These looks amazing!
This was so much fun to watch ~ and your creativity is incredible!
awe thank you Sarah!
this is aweomse. great idea. thanks
How's the compound holding after a few plowing sessions?
Still going strong. :D
Genius. You’re very creative
Amazing!
What were the wood measurements?
This is amazing ! Well done
Great job , I like the color
Wow!!!!! Great job! Love it !
🐇🕯Beautiful tku; the best part was watching you two work together as a team😊
Awe thank you 🥰
Awe thank you 🥰
Incredible! Brilliant!
Thank you :)
Does the stain ever dry? 😭 i replicated your amazing DIY over a week ago but the stain has refused to dry
OH NO! Yes the stain should dry. If a very thick layer is applied it might stay tacky. Maybe try sealing a small area with clear finish to see if it helps.
The exact same thing happened to me. Well i just stained it but when i try to take off the extra product everything comes off the paint. Maybe the problem is that i used oil based stain only and she was using gel?? No idea. Have u tried using a clear coat?
@@kingmasonry i used gel + clear ontop. it eventually took weeks to dry, but it is dry now :)
@cytla1614 weeks??? Wow... that's a long time. I put a fan blowing on it in the garage. Im leaving for a week. Hopefully, it will be dry by the time i come back. Was it still tacky when you put the clear on it ?
i love this! do you have a full sized bed or a king?
I have a queen bed! Thank you Happy to hear you loved it :D !
I love the headboard.
You are a genius
You are too kind. Thank you :)
How did you attachb
It's got those legs it's standing on and the bed leans again it to push it against the wall!
where did you get that scalloped spreader from?
This is the one I got on amazon - amzn.to/3FYHt0p
I just bought a house 3 months ago and barely could afford to furnish it with new furniture. You give me ideas on how to alter my old furniture and change it up. Thank you so much ❤️
