Reader’s DIY Headboard

I’ve gotten a few emails recently from reader’s who have used my tufted headboard with wings tutorial to make their own version.

Sheila wrote to me first with a few questions and I was excited to see the finished product! It looks like she followed my measurements exactly because the spacing and height looks a lot like mine!

She also used the same nailhead as me 🙂 Great job Sheila!

 Cristina created a shorter version which turned out great too! 

Finally, Brandi and David. Brandi had been showing David pictures from Pinterest for a while as a project reminder and he surprised her with it on Valentine’s day! How sweet, awesome job David!
I love seeing pics and hearing that my instructions were easy enough to follow 🙂 Thanks so much for sending them in! 
If you’ve used any of my tutorials, I’d love to see pictures! Feel free to email me at sarah.m.dorsey at gmail.com

      I'm not sure, but it does look like a thick linen 🙂

      Hi Barbara! I don’t have the conversion to a twin bed – they should be fairly similar, but the width will be smaller. Happy building!
