My daughter and I made a king sized headboard using a leftover half sheet of half inch plywood, some leftover quilt batting, a recycled foam from a twin size cot and a king size comforter which was enough to cover the front and back of the headboard. Great video.

thank you for your tutorial. The negative comments are unnecessary. If it's too long, fast forward or move on. some people are miserable.

wonder what you're actually defending... a video or a demographic

Chris Chrisopherson what are you actually supporting? The negativity or the fact that she doesn't have the right to defend the demographic if that's what she was in fact doing? Because at the end of the day all she said was negative comments are unnecessary

Queen OfNY I’m not miserable. I’m a viewer with opinions. So sick of fan girl illiterates with an IQ of a wombat slinging out “you just jealous” or “you just hate your life” whenever non-bashing criticism is lobbed at someone who posts a blog or vlog. The caption read as a tutorial - not tutorial and a day in my life rundown. A little intro is expected but not half the video. If she can’t handle the criticism, she should post to just her friends on FB. Then you could “friend” her and your universe feel complete.

dang it april, i wouldve never thought about using the mattress padding. I was going to purchase the batting and foam from the craftstore.. GENIUS!!!

love this so easy...thanks for sharing this Love....i was trying to figure out how to make headboards for kids for cheap to give away...most low income families dont have them for their children...thank you so much Love again

Thanks for the idea. I think what you are doing for the shelters in Atlanta is awesome. I don't know if you've worked with PADV but they help so many abused women and children. But as I'm sure you know their locations are never disclosed and under signed contract with legal ramifications. Thanks for the idea. I need a cheap headboard for and extra room and this is perfect.

Thanks for being real enough to show the back. It does help to see that part, too! This transformation was stunning. I'm sure the homeowner was ecstatic. Great work!

Awesome! She was making a video on "How To" not doing a speech class! Great video. I am grateful to people like you, who put themselves out there to show others what we can do to brighten our homes on a small budget. Don't stop, you are a blessing!

the room turned out really nice! great job

You just saved me from traveling 60-70 miles (round trip) for foam from the closest craft store (Joann’s). I don’t know why I didn’t think to use a foAm mattress topper. Thank you!

Hello April, I truly appreciate your video. I am beginning several DIY projects at home and I have almost completed a guest bedroom. I saw a headboard that cost well over $300. With the help of your video I should save $250. I can wait to show you.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the idea of having those headboards vertically. Cuts the budget for buying a painting or mirror or whatever on top if it's horizontal.. Super thanks for the idea.... :-)

Perfect, very simple, I have a king sized bed, and I think that's very creative to hang two side by side..

It Came Out Soooo Nice Love it

I like the finished product, the tall vertical lines. Very nice.

​@UniqueIllusions how did you attach it to the wall?

Love this idea so much, I have been trying to come up with a headboard idea for both my husband and my room as well as my daughter's room, this is so versatile, I could easily make a larger one for our room and a smaller one for hers with maybe some whimsical fabric! thank you so much for the idea and i think what you are doing to help others is amazing. :) i'm guessing you wanted to kick yourself a few times on forgetting the staple gun i can't imagine how much patience you must have had with the glue!

Thank you for what you are doing for the shelters!! Much love and respect ♥️

this actually turned out pretty cute! thanks for the tip in the foam. awesome job!

If you dont have a stapler you could just attach the fabric to the board with upholstery tacks and a hammer. If you have enough material left over cut a piece for the back of the board to so its completely covered that way nobody knows what its made from and makes for a neater finish.

So creative, easy & cheap..I think even "i" can do this! Thank you so much..your bedroom looks beautiful btw!

Love itttt !!! Great job muchacha bella

Nice tutorial ! Great job explaining each step for those who are somewhat intimidated by a project like this. Thanks.

Just watched this in 2019. So helpful. Thank you from Canada!

Love this! Love the creative way you did the headboards vertically.

Girl you are on the money i make all my headboard and this is the easy way.

Congratulation on all your endeavors. it doesn't matter to me how long you take, it's easier for me to follow..thank you.

you made it so simple, and easy, Love it !!! Thank u!!!!

You are an angel. What a great person you are. I wish I could help people like you do! So creative too!!! Bless You!!

Thank you for making this video. I'm doing my son's room over from little boy to big boy and looking for ideas. Your's came out great!

I will be using this very method to create my daughter a really nice headboard. Thank you for taking the time to do this!

You did a great job; and thank you for all the work you do, giving back to the community.

wow thanks, i just brought a bedroom set that I do not like. its a platform wood bed, i wanted a leather headboard, so now i know what to do instead of selling the whole set lol! Besides now it will be unique also. THANKS!!!!!

Thanks loved the video. Going to make one myself. The video is a great help. Wonderful to hear about the volunteer work you do for the Shelter. Well done!

Always mariassunshine I love designing on a budget! It really challenges me. Thanks for stopping by!

great idea! i really want a more stylish headboard on a budget. this is perfect!

I really love the look of your home and your sense of style. I am going to try this. It's not that hard to figure out. Thank you.

Where did you get thst wine rack in the background??? I need that like yesterday...please let me know

Yes @Tr3sC89 you can place it horizontally! A queen size bed is typically 60 inches wide or 5 feet so you would want your board to be at least that length. But you can also make it longer too!! You can use the simple screw method or make a cleat. For this headboard I used 4 screws (2 in each panel). I placed them in the middle of the panel evenly apart from each other. Hope this helps!

You did good job

Love it. Applying your idea so I can make my daughter one too.

I loved the finished product. You did an awesome job. Thanks for the DIY.

you are an absolute doll! i can't wait to make a new head board! thank you so much!

I love the end result, that was really nice and easy to make

Wow. Great video. Great idea! Very entertaining as well. Thanks.

...she's actually using chipboard ....cheaper than plywood.

Very nice design. Very creative.

Great idea. Thanks for the tutorial.

This was so creative!!!

What a wonderful idea. Thanks for sharing! Guess what I plan to make this weekend! Thank you!

You have Great Artistic Style and a Heart of Gold, Keep up the Great Work !

WOW! The room at the end looks fantastic!

I really wanted to see how you placed it on the bed. But thank you for sharing.

Wow - great job! I will try this too.

Very nice! Thank you for sharing your tips...

awesome job!!!

*Thank you! Great tutorial.* I love your voice

God bless you all its gorgeous im sure they felt so much safer in that beautiful space ❤

What kind of hardware was used to hang the headboard? The results are great!

That's amazing thank you for making this video I am going to try it.

Really cool im going to use it for my bed as it came with no headboard or foot board wierd i know thanks for the tutorial

Thanks for sharing . you are talented !!

You are such a lovely human being! lots of love, xx

Great job very elegant!

Thanks so much April it actually worked very well 😃

Thanks for this, I am attempting a king head board so I hope it comes out as nicely as yours did. :D

Very helpful and easy tutorial

Great job And a quick way to get the job done

Wow great tutorial! I was stressing about using a staple gun but I see a glue gun is much better! It looks so cleaner and neater that way. Thanks!

DAMN! That was awesome! I am a broke college student with a gross apartment so this really helps! Thanks girl!

How do you hold it in the back in case you wanted to have in a horizontal position?

Sweet headboard! Thanks!

How do you attach it to the wall or bed frame?

so i do like the head board but I would like to know how did you actually attach the headboard to the wall?

Looks great!

That's okay it takes awhile, we enjoy hearing the stories.

Seems easy enough. Thanks April! How did you hang the head boards on the wall? What did you use?

i have a victorian style headboad with posters,,,, what can i do with those?

What a neat idea!

The over-all look (Oh My Wow) what a beautiful space created for the family. You did a wonderful job. Come help me with my home, I'm about to put my hands on it and I myself am afraid of the outcome. Can't figure out what goes with what but I know what I'd like :/

WOW! Amazing. Thank you=)

Love this tutorial but I just want to know how do you lift the bed up because the rails move around a lot do you have a tutorial on that thank you!

Loved the tutorial....Could I do the same placing the headboard horizontally? If so how would I mount it and for a queen size bed how long would the plywood have to be? Thanks...

some people are aholes! if its too long for you thats why theres a fast forward option. I loved this video cheap,quick and she gives alot of slow info that the other vids ive seen dont give.👿 love u girrrl your vids are great.
