DIY Headboard & Mini Master Bedroom Reveal!


I have finally made some progress on my master bedroom. I still have lots of projects on my to-do list, but things are starting to slowly come together.
My budget is very small, so DIY projects are a must! I am super excited about my DIY spotted headboard, I really think it turned out great!


I purchased the dalmation fabric from Tonic Living. It is only $11.95/yard which is such a great price. Tonic Living is my go-to online store for affordable fabric. They also just happen to be a Canadian based company (woot woot) but ship to the US daily!
This fabric is perfect for a headboard since the pattern can be placed in either direction. I only needed 1.5 yards (for a queen) which made it super affordable too.

I love how simple, crisp, and full of personality this fabric is!

Plus, I can never say no to black & white.

The pillows were a labor of love too. I'll share more about them next week! If you follow me on Instagram, I've been sharing updates as I go along.

So far I have spent just under $225.00 which includes my nightstands, headboard, pillows, and accessories! Not bad right?

I kept things super simple in regards to making the headboard. For a queen you need:
1.5 yards of fabric 3 yards of batting (use coupon at JoAnn's) 4 x 8 sheet of plywood (cut to size at Home Depot) Staples & Staple gun
Step 1: Wrap batting (2 layers) & staple.

Step 2: Lay out fabric.

Step 3: Staple fabric (I start from the middle and work my way out).

Super simple & inexpensive!
