Try this Easy Upholstered Headboard to give your room a new look! It doesn’t matter what size bed you have, this project can work for a king, queen, full or twin sized bed. First, I measured the width of our bed, allowing for a few inches of overhang on each side. Then I had to decide how far down I wanted the headboard to go. Should it rest on the floor, be bolted to the bed frame, or hang on the wall? I decided that nailing the headboard to the wall would be the most economical choice.
