I absolutely love writing this blog and sharing information and DIY projects with you, but sometimes as I’m writing up the DIY instructions for various projects, I can’t help but wonder if anyone ever uses these little project ideas.
So imagine how thrilled I was when a reader named Amy B. posted her DIY diamond-tufted headboard on the Addicted 2 Decorating Facebook page yesterday!! I was so excited…and proud…and amazed all at the same time. She did such an amazing job. Take a look for yourself.
Isn’t that incredible!? She made it for a friend who is moving into an apartment, so obviously it hasn’t been installed yet. But I just couldn’t wait to show you. Amy pointed out that the headboard is actually a silver/pewter color, but for some reason it shows up more gold-toned in the pic. I can’t wait to see it installed!! Thanks so much for sharing it with us, Amy! 🙂
So, you ready to make one of your own? If Amy and I can do it, you can to!! So just scoot on over to this tutorial and whip up a headboard for yourself (or a friend). And by all means, when you’re finished, send me a picture, okay?

November 26, 2010 at 6:14 pmwow. i have just read your tutorial and then saw this post. i have been hunting the net high and low to find a tufted headboard and cant find anything that meets my expectations and fits my bank balance! im desperate for one, but wouldnt justify the price of some places! i am seriously considering giving this a try! i have a few weeks off over christmas, and will probably end up rather bored, so i might just do it! thanks so much for a great tutorial, i would never have considered the option of making one myself, and would probably have ended up paying over the odds for one! xx julie
