Diamond-tufted upholstered headboard

I had been promising my mom I'd build her an upholstered headboard since August.  Finally I got around to it in December, just in time for Christmas.  And today I finally took photos of it in its new home.









This was my first attempt at building a headboard of any kind, and I'm quite pleased with how it turned out. More importantly, my mom likes it too!

Be sure to stop by tomorrow with a step-by-step tutorial.  Hey, if I can do it, you can too!

    That looks really nice!

    The headboard that I did when we remodeled our bedroom was a large, tile one! Pretty fun. :)

    I'm so impressed with your creativity and patience,Hollie. You have given me such a wonderful gift of beauty. I enjoy just looking at it and showing it off. Thank you a million times. You took such terrific photos, too. I'm surprised that you didn't include your two little-girl dolls that I found.

    With love,
    Mom
