DIY Headboard hacks for the bedroom

The roadblock standing between you and a whole new look in the bedroom is a headboard. And, it can often less than the price of that clearance bedding set. Here are some of Modernize’s favorite headboard hacks in a few simple, cost-effective steps.

If you’re comfortable spending a bit more on the perfect fabric and thicker matting, that’s up to you.

The shape and size offer the potential for mixing it up with a variety of possible configuration options. With the right paint on top of a solid finish, the condition isn’t a concern either.


Using rustic wood boards and pallets

Free is not a word that is commonly used in association with headboards. Yet, it is possible to use something affordable like pallets and make it into a special headboard that will pair so well in a boho bedroom.


Wood pallets or other pieces of wood make a fabulous background with no big investment.

Think outside the board

Use alternative ideas and give your bedroom a unique feel. A curtain with twinkle lights behind it, or a cool wall tapestry can create this feel. Also, you can be creative with something from a hobby or something you feel passionately about.
