    As we're getting closer to the full bedroom reveal, one thing I needed was a new headboard and bed frame. But styles that both were beautiful and functional for renters were either too expensive or non-existent. So in this video I DIY an easy, custom wingback headboard and matching bed skirt to achieve that high-end upholstered bed frame look for around $200 ✨

    54 inch wide fabric is hard to calculate amount you need. You were right to get more than you thought you might need. You could always finish the back of headboard with the extra fabric using upholstery tacks or staples and sew storage baskets or fabric liners for store bought baskets, etc.
    Note: I cringed a bit when you cut your fabric. I was taught to pull out a piece or two of the warp threads (the threads making up width of your fabric on the roll). That way you know your fabric piece is squared up so you can get even tension while pulling fabric taught while upholstering(plus you naturally make a straight line cutting guide). Beautiful product in the end either way. ❤

    This is a really easy to follow upholstered bed tutorial! Thank you:) For paint colour, I like the lightst one; it will still look dark after it's on the whole wall., and goes nicely with your fabrics.however, they are all good colours.

    My Lowe’s has stopped cutting boards for people altogether. They also stopped their stockpile of scraps. Both of which I always used. I always ask them to cut my large pieces of wood specifically so it would fit in my car but then always shop their scrap pile.

      Oh no that is terrible! I hope that doesn't happen at my location! I at least depend on it for the same reason you do, to fit pieces into my car. People will end up out in the parking lot cutting down pieces!

    Alli, great job. I know this is a work in progress but what a solid, beautiful foundation you are building by starting with the bed. In my experience, the benefit of DIY is not always cost but true customization… ready made products are always missing that personal custom touch. Love your videos, keep making them!

      Thank you so much! There's definitely something so rewarding about DIYing and being able to customize something! It makes the whole room feel like it's coming together now.

    Definitely would go with the darkest color for a bit more contrast.

    I can't wait to see the finished accent wall. Please share your thoughts on choice of paint color.

    I like the 2 color swatches on the ends. If you do have leftover fabric, I’m sure you can make some throw pillows for bed or maybe a picture backing inside a frame or something 😁🤷🏻‍♀️

    looks good...but get yourself and electric stapler...they don't cost much

    • @ActuallyAlli
      @ActuallyAlli  2 месяца назад

      After this project, I definitely want one for any future upholstery!

  • @vivianrichard53
    @vivianrichard53 3 месяца назад

    It might be wise to invest in a good electric stapler.
