What can be done from the head of the bed. DIY soft headboard. Hidden problems and how to solve them. How to make a curved headboard

No one will argue that sleeping on a bed with a soft headboard is comfortable and cozy, since there is always the opportunity to lean on the back, which is pleasant to the touch and harmonizes perfectly with the entire interior.

A soft headboard will make the bed even softer and the interior richer.

This bed is good for everyone, but many are confused by such a nuance as the relatively high cost of such furniture. However, if you don’t have enough finances, don’t despair: you can make a soft headboard with your own hands, there’s nothing particularly difficult about it. In order to make a soft headboard, you will need the following:

In order to make a soft headboard for a bed, you will need batting or padding polyester.

• Chipboard or plywood. As for plywood, you should not buy it at a hardware store, since it is not sold there of the highest quality; it becomes distorted during use. It is recommended to purchase such material from companies that manufacture furniture;
• batting or padding polyester. As for the batting, it is easy to work with, but you should not stretch it too much, as it may unravel. Instead of batting, you can use a knitted lining fabric;
• foam;
• buttons;
• nails;
• strong threads with lavsan or nylon (you can use nylon threads). Whatever threads are used, the main condition is: they should not tear, they can only be cut;
• drill;
• jigsaw;
• stapler for furniture (it is better to buy a metal one, you should immediately take spare staples for it).

How to make a soft back: the first stage of work

Before you start work, you need to develop a design project for the bed in general and the headboard in particular. This process should be carried out only after many options have been studied, the most acceptable one should be chosen, and one should be guided not only by one’s tastes, but also by the features of the rest of the interior. It should be taken into account that a soft headboard is more suitable for a classic style, but it will not be suitable for a bedroom designed in a high-tech or avant-garde style.

First, the outline of the future head of the bed is drawn on the chipboard. Then the canvas is attached to the outline using a stapler.

On a sheet of plywood or chipboard you need to draw the shape of the future soft headboard of the bed. The height is calculated from the surface of the bed (if the back is made of plywood) or from the floor (if it is made of a heavier material). The upper part should be symmetrical. In order to achieve this, you need to draw an outline on a piece of paper and trace both sides in turn. This blank is then carefully cut out with a jigsaw.

If you plan to make a soft back relief using buttons or other accessories, then you need to mark and drill holes in the workpiece. If buttons are used, then you need to take into account the fact that all tight-fitting buttons are produced with a plastic leg; such a leg cannot withstand loads and immediately bounces off.

It is difficult to find metal buttons on the stem in regular stores, so it is recommended to purchase them in military stores. It is not recommended to use too many such elements, and you must ensure that their arrangement is symmetrical. Now, from the fabric with which the headboard will be covered, you need to cut out large round pieces (their diameter should be twice the size of the buttons themselves). You need to sew a strong seam around the perimeter, then place a button in the center and tighten the thread. Thus, the button ends up in a tight bag. In order for everything to be secure, it is recommended to secure it with a few additional stitches.

How to make a soft back: the second stage of work

To make a soft back, the base of chipboard and foam rubber is sheathed with soft material.

The workpiece is placed on a foam sheet, and then you need to draw the contours of the soft part with a marker. Then, with an ordinary, sharply sharpened knife, you need to cut the foam along the contour, pushing its parts apart. If soft material is used for these purposes, then instead of a knife you should use simple scissors. Now you need to assemble the future soft headboard of the bed - foam rubber and plywood, then batting or padding polyester is stretched on top. All parts need to be connected together, bending the edges. On the reverse side you need to fix the batting, for this you use a furniture stapler.

Then the headboard is similarly finished with thick fabric; you can use tapestry, corduroy and high-quality fabric, which is used for upholstery. As a fabric, you can use leatherette, chinilla or slightly fleecy fabric. When purchasing fabric, you need to take into account that its width is 150 cm, which means that it may not fit along the length.

The trim around the edges of the headboard is carefully secured with strong threads.

In order to avoid this, it is recommended to use fabric without a pronounced pattern. We must take into account that foam rubber is sold in standard sheets, so you need to cut it out yourself. It is good to cut it with a regular knife, but you should not be afraid that the edge will not be perfectly smooth, since it will still be pressed by the fabric.

The edges of the fabric need to be folded, first of all at the bends, they should be fixed with a stapler. All waves are fixed, even sections too, but you need to try to keep the folds even. Now you need to take strong threads with lavsan or nylon and a large needle. The thread is threaded through the hole, the fabric and foam are pierced through. The needle should be longer than the thickness of the back. It is necessary to take into account that needles tend to break during work, so you need to stock up on several at once.

When you come home from hard work, you want only one thing: to relax in a cozy atmosphere in your bedroom on your favorite bed. It is one of the most important places for us; you spend a third of your life on it, so it must be comfortable.

The very first thing that catches your eye when you enter the bedroom is the bed. It should be comfortable and beautiful.

But few people think about how to ensure this pleasure. If you are an exception to them, then this recipe for making a luxurious bed is for you. You can imagine an unimaginable variety of ideas for decorating this center of the bedroom, or you can start with the simplest thing - decorating the bed. But how to cover a bed with your own hands?

Of course, you can buy a ready-made bed in a store, but the assortment and price sometimes leave much to be desired. Resorting to the services of manufacturing the desired bed model to order is not very beneficial for our time and wallet. All that remains is to take this, at first glance, difficult and painstaking matter into your own hands.

Tools and materials

Choose fabric for finishing the bed that is non-staining and wrinkle-resistant.

For this process you will need:

• foam;
• batting;
• plywood or hardboard;
• construction stapler, scissors;
• any fabric for covering;
• glue.

The first thing to do is to select the size and shape of the chipboard for covering fabric. It should extend beyond the sheet by 20-40 cm. Thus, there will be a supply of fabric for fastening.

The same must be done with foam rubber. It should be 8-13 cm larger than the bed frame, regardless of whether it is round or square. At the same time, decide in advance which edge of your bed is soft or hard? Depending on this, choose the upholstery option.

Workflow Features

First upholstery method

Build a bed frame and nail plywood onto it.

You need to stuff plywood or hardboard onto a pre-prepared bed frame. At the same time, leave a distance of 5-7 cm at the top in order to secure the foam rubber. The foam rubber is stuffed on top of the plywood, while it is superimposed on the excess part of the plywood that was left in excess. It cannot be nailed without creating a quilted effect, so use a special glue.

When you have finished stuffing the foam rubber, you need to stretch the fabric on top and nail it to the bottom with staples at the bottom of the frame. In the corners you need to gather the fabric into 2 folds, which you place on top of each other and staple them in place at their junction. You can’t stuff staples on top of each other, otherwise it will just be a waste of them. The more you use them, the better the fabric will hold up. Try to nail the staples as far from the edge of the fabric as possible.

Stretch the fabric over the foam and secure it with a stapler,

​Here you can also cut out excess fabric, just do not cut off too much, because then arrows and other types of damage may appear on the surface of the fabric. Or the upholstery may simply fall off the frame.

Under no circumstances should the upholstery fabric be stretched too tightly; the seams should not bend. If the pattern or thread strips lie flat and you can't pull a fold in the fabric, you can be sure that you did everything right. Make sure you choose the right fabric.

For different types of upholstery, there are different fabrics to suit your needs. If you plan to place the mattress in a recessed frame, which would be suitable for a round bed, use this upholstery method.

Second upholstery method

Attach the foam rubber to the prepared sheet of plywood using glue or a stapler.

In the same way as in the first case, the frame is covered first with plywood, and then with foam rubber. However, if the sides of your cover will not be even, meaning you will use cords and buttons to create indentations in the material, it is recommended to use batting. This will not create a gap at the top of the bed. Just upholster the frame in the same way; you can add additional fabric at the bottom to hide the fastening points. You can nail plywood to the bottom. Thus the frame is completely upholstered. We put the finished mattress on top and the process is over.

The process of making recesses with buttons in the trim is not particularly complicated. You can draw out the foam rubber in advance, nail it and thread the threads through the fabric, which will subsequently stretch the fabric and buttons will be sewn on top. Or you can drive decorative nails into the places marked on the fabric and simply glue the buttons. They should be the same color as the upholstery, this way you can create a quilted covering.

It is best to choose materials made from natural ingredients.

Upholstery fabric should be selected depending on your preferences. You can upholster beds with velor, velvet, microfiber, jacquard, flock.

If you have allergies, then cover the bed with natural materials, for example, cotton or linen. The latest options can be used for the warm season as replacement upholstery. Cotton does not collect dust, and linen is a durable material. Upholstery colors may also vary depending on the time of year. In summer the upholstery is light, in winter it is dark. At the same time, they should be combined with curtains or decorative pillows or a bedspread.

Before you start covering the bed, carefully inspect the frame for cracks and chips.

1. Before removing the old covering, be sure to inspect the frame for cracks or damage.
2. In most cases, it is recommended to change both the padding and the springs. There may be defects in it, or a lot of dust has formed there over time. It is best to additionally secure the new filler with muslin.
3. Choose fabric with a protective coating. Do not upholster it with nap fabrics or elastic materials. They stretch, and you will be tired of changing the upholstery. Colored designs on fabric are not recommended. When upholstering at home, minor defects will be noticeable.
4. Make a removable cover or upholstery for the bed.

This way it can be easily cleaned and replaced in the off-season or when worn out.

If you want to make a cover that can later be removed, then you need to measure the frame in advance and create a pattern according to it. Then sew a cover to size from pieces of fabric. It is better to use elastic bands for the sides of the cover.

To make an upholstered bed beautiful for a long time, it is best to make the upholstery in 2 layers.

The first is non-removable, and the second is used as a cover. It is better to make permanent upholstery from high-strength fabric such as cotton, silk, linen, satin, or bamboo fabric. In this case, the outer upholstery must be related to the inner one so that no friction or static occurs between them.

There are many main mistakes to avoid. If the wood of the frame is of poor quality, then cracks may appear on it, which will subsequently lead to tears in the expensive fabric. Therefore, never cover a bed made of poor wood with expensive fabric or leather without a base upholstery. When making removable upholstery, carefully select a fabric that will not stretch. Therefore, it is very important to choose high-quality fabric for covers. If you want to wash the upholstery, then make sure that the fabric is washed well and does not lose its color.

If you want to further decorate your updated frame, make a headboard for it. In the same way, make upholstery, only for pieces of plywood folded in half, and attach it all to the bed or to the wall. And our ideal bed is ready. Thus, you don’t have to buy a new bed, but simply update its upholstery. Once all the work is done, you will look differently at your updated bed.

How to make a patchwork bed headboard

It's beautiful and originalpatchwork bed headboard, in my opinion, would look cool in a guest or children's bedroom.

To make it, you can use colorful patterned or plain fabrics. By choosing the appropriate tones, colors and patterns, such a patchwork bed can be fitted into any existing setting.

And finally, the most important thing is that a patchwork headboard is very easy to make...

I came across a similar recipe and took the time to try it, which I don’t regret.

The example in the photo used green, orange and white fabrics for the patchwork pillows, which goes well with the overall color in the bedroom.

About making a backrest from patchwork pillows

We will need:

— 2 sheets of 19mm plywood
- Saw, hacksaw or something similar (you can ask to cut the squares of your men)
— High density foam rubber.
— Batting
- Glue.
— 1 meter of fabric in each of four colors
- Scissors
— Stapler and 8mm staples
— Adhesive tape
— Screwdriver and approximately 35 screws
— Two fastenings — hangers on the wall.

To begin, we cut one sheet of plywood into pieces 200 x 200 or take ready-made ones.

We cut foam rubber and batting into pieces 200 x 200 mm.

We cut the fabric into pieces 300 x 300 mm.

Now some explanations for the instruction picture:


1 Take a piece of plywood 200 x 200 mm and glue foam rubber onto it so that it does not slip.

2. Add a layer of batting and fabric.

3. We get three layers, laid face down on the work surface.

4. Pull the fabric along the edges, first on one side, tuck in the excess and punch it with a stapler.

Pull the fabric to a stiff, but not too tight surface, first on opposite corners of the pillow. Then we fold the corners and carefully punch them.

We repeat this on all sides and catch the pillow, making sure not to overtighten it too much.

5 Follow steps 1-4 and get 40 patchwork pillows.

I want to say that it is easier to work according to a template, it turns out faster and more convenient.

6. Place all pillows face down. We twist them around the perimeter so that they do not fall apart. Then we take the second uncut piece of plywood, align it and secure each pillow through it with screws. You need to mark the places where you should tighten the screws and choose a screw number so that you don’t pierce the plywood on the cushions, otherwise you might get hurt later.

And finally, we attach hanging loops to the back wall of the headboard and everything is ready for installation.

If you don’t want to hang the patchwork headboard on the wall, you can do it differently. We attach two legs to it that are slightly lower than the bed. And then we simply install it between the wall and the standard headboard...

The original appearance of your bedroom is guaranteed!

The background to the creation of the headboard was as follows. On the one hand, I didn’t want to pay several thousand euros for an Italian or French bed, but on the other hand, I really wanted to create something special. And then it was decided that we would make the bed ourselves. So, I’ll show you how the process of creating this beautiful bed went.

I formulated the problem like this. We need to make a bed with a fairly wide base, a removable cover and a shaped headboard.
First, a whole collection of headboards was assembled. After reviewing it, a shortlist was formed, which was analyzed for the complexity of implementation on site. As a result of weighing all the pros and cons, a prototype of the future headboard was chosen.

So now everything is in order.

1. We ordered a prefabricated MDF bed frame. Previously, two orthopedic bases were transferred to the workshop, purchased from IKEA, the dimensions of which became the starting point for calculating the sizes.

2. Cut out the shape of the headboard.

3. Dismantle the headboard and start upholstering it. Foam rubber 5 cm thick was pre-cut in the workshop according to a pattern taken from the headboard shape. We apply foam rubber to the headboard and fix it with glue (special glue for foam rubber) in several places.

4. Use a furniture stapler to nail the edges of the foam rubber to the plywood.

5. We proceed directly to stretching the fabric. We start from the bottom to fix the fabric evenly, then place the headboard vertically and stretch the fabric. To go around the corners, we cut the fabric.

6. Place the headboard vertically and check the symmetry and uniform tension of the fabric.
7. Let's start working with furniture nails. First we upholster the outer edge.

8. Make chalk markings for the second line of furniture nails. To mark this line, we first punch it with a furniture stapler.

9. Along the lines marked with a stapler, we nail the nails of the furniture tape.

10. On the reverse side we cover everything with technical fabric.

In every bedroom, the bed takes center stage. After all, this is the place where we relax after a hard day at work, watch TV, read books and sleep. Therefore, the design of this piece of furniture should be given special importance. A DIY headboard will allow you to create maximum coziness, a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere in the bedroom.

In this article we will talk about how you can decorate your sleeping area in an original and colorful way with an aesthetically attractive and functional headboard. The most important thing is to use a creative approach and find your own individual style using non-standard solutions.

You can make the following options for the head of your bed:

• Metal. This is the most “ancient” type of backrest. Here you can use various forged elements of any design and shape. It is suitable for many interior design styles. For example, such as Scandinavian, classical, Romanesque and others.

• Soft headboard. This is the simplest option for decorating a bed. Almost anyone can do it. You don't even need to have special skills here. Just listen to your imagination. Most often, such a headboard has the shape of a rectangle.

• Wooden headboard. This is a classic option. The style of the entire bedroom directly depends on how you process the wood.

How to make a headboard with your own hands

All you need is to imagine the future design of the backrest, purchase all the necessary materials and spend a little of your time. We will tell you in more detail about what options you can build yourself later in the article.

How to make a soft headboard

Do you want to creatively decorate the interior of your bed, making it truly cozy and comfortable? You can always make a soft headboard with your own hands. The options for execution here are simply unlimited.

The headboard can be functional to lean on, as well as decorative. In any case, the bed looks much more beautiful with it than without it. You can always lean on the soft headboard and comfortably read a book before going to bed, or watch TV.

The headboard of such a bed is completely covered with fabric, under which there is soft foam rubber. Using various screeding techniques will allow you to achieve an aesthetically pleasing appearance. As for the fabric itself, you should choose calmer colors, because this is a bedroom in which a relaxing environment should reign. A very bright print will strain your eyes and make you even more tired.

As materials you will need:

• fabric or leather;
• plywood;
• foam;
• glue;
• stapler

We cut out the desired shape from a plywood sheet using a jigsaw or wood saw. We lay the required amount of padding polyester or foam rubber around the entire perimeter. It must be a single piece so that pits do not form and the appearance of the finished product does not deteriorate. We fasten it with a stapler or glue. After this we cover it with fabric or leather. You can nail decorative nails around the perimeter, make a “carriage tie”, arrange everything in the form of pillows - there are a lot of options. We will talk about them below in the article.

How to make a curved headboard

It will also be soft. The only difference here is the wavy relief of the headboard. It can be absolutely anything you see it as. As a result of such a wooden headboard, your bedroom will acquire a respectable appearance, chic and wealth. The suede upholstery looks especially attractive. The perimeter of the headboard can be decorated with decorative stones, carnations or patterns.

Before you start creating a masterpiece, you need to draw a sketch of it on paper. It is better to do this in real size on whatman paper. The resulting template is easily transferred to a plywood piece.

As for the design option, there can be two of them: carriage screed or smooth. In the latter case, there is nothing complicated: attach the foam rubber to a figured sheet of plywood, trim off the excess, cover everything with fabric and fasten it on the back side along the entire perimeter, not forgetting to tighten it. The fabric will wrinkle where it bends. They should be given special attention and mounted in such a way that they are not visible on the front part.

Making a quilted headboard using the carriage screed technique

Do you want originality and sophistication? The headboard in the form of a “carriage screed” (Capitone) looks especially attractive and interesting. To do this you will need the following materials:

• a piece of plywood of the size you need;
• dense foam rubber with synthetic padding;
• textile;
• stapler, drill, crochet hook, knife, scissors;
• buttons and a strong lace to secure them.

The manufacturing process itself is simple and consists of the following steps:

1. The first thing to do is build a new headboard using boards and plywood. You can use the old one, but to do this, you need to clean it of all the old upholstery.
2. Marking the holes through which the button lace will be threaded. To do this, you should use a ruler (roulette). Do everything as accurately as possible, otherwise you will not achieve a positive result.
3. Drilling plywood in the designated places using a drill.
4. We cut out a piece of foam rubber around the perimeter of the entire headboard blank. It is fastened with a special construction stapler.
5. Cut a single piece of textile to the size of the headboard. Leave a margin of approximately 25 cm around the edges.
6. The next stage is more labor-intensive - attaching the buttons. They must first be wrapped in pieces of similar fabric and glued on. It is worth using high-quality glue so that the textile does not come off over time.
7. After the buttons have dried, take a long needle and lace (thick thread) and sew them to the headboard. We tie the button (covered with textile) well and use a needle to sew it on. The needle should be held strictly straight and move from the textile to the back wall of the headboard. We fasten everything firmly to another regular large button on the back side.
8. When all the buttons are secured, we form a fold. It must come from above. And so on every button. After every 4th button, we stretch the material over the end of the headboard and attach the resulting folds with a stapler. As a result, you should get small diamond shapes from the folds.
9. We fasten the fabric around the entire perimeter of the headboard, stretching it well. To make the corners as beautiful as possible, we make textile folds (the upper part is pulled over the lower part). Excess fabric near the legs must be trimmed.
   The appearance of such a bed will delight you every day and promote a relaxing mood. What else do you need in a bedroom?

How to make a headboard out of pillows

Don’t want to spend a lot on material, but at the same time transform your sleeping place? Use unnecessary pillows. It is always bright, fun, original, comfortable, unique and funny. A bed headboard with pillows is perfect for a country style interior. You won’t have any difficulties in making it here.

All you need to do is assemble a bunch of cushions and attach them with glue to the appropriate size of plywood. Also, you can make them yourself using small scraps of fabric with foam rubber. To do this, you cut the textiles into the required small sizes and form pillows from them and foam rubber. Next, they should be glued to the plywood. The result will definitely delight you with its originality, beauty and creativity.

How to make a leather headboard

Do you like everything stylish, modern and luxurious? Then a leather headboard for a bed is the best option. With it, your sleeping place will certainly become the main decoration in the bedroom. This will also save money, since a leather bed in a store will cost you a lot.

Leather as a material has the following undeniable advantages:

• solidity;
• long service life;
• excellent dirt-repellent properties;
• easy care;
• aesthetic appeal of the interior.

But it is important to choose the right material for upholstery. The skin should not be very thick (up to 3 mm), elastic and without defects. In this case, it will be very easy for you to work with it. When covering, do not allow moisture to enter.

How to sew a cover for the headboard

This work can be done from any material: fabric, leather, leatherette, suede, etc. During the sewing process, you should make an allowance of a couple of centimeters on all sides (based on the thickness of the filler). Thanks to this, you can easily put the cover on a pre-designed or existing headboard. It is necessary to sew from the wrong side.

As for the filler (sintepon or foam rubber), it can be added after putting on the cover. A case decorated with decorative stitches, buttons, buttons and other decors looks very nice. But for this you must have the appropriate sewing technique in order to make a beautiful and original cover for the head of the bed. In any case, there are no restrictions here, except for the flight of your design ideas.

How to design a bed headboard

If you want to plunge into the life of the French province, you can choose the Provence style. This is a stylization of the life of an old village. A lot of textiles are used here, with flowers depicted on them. Light colors predominate, such as blue, light green, lavender, white and others.

A bed with lighting at the top of the headboard will look original. This light can be used as a night light. Also, it will create a romantic and relaxing atmosphere.

A fabric headboard in the same color as the curtains in the bedroom will look very nice.

If your bedroom does not have large spaces, then every square meter is golden. A wonderful find in this option can be shelves located above the head of the bed. Most often there are several of them. These shelves will very conveniently accommodate your favorite books that you like to read before bed, family photos, as well as many different decors.
