This will save you tons of money on all those gorgeous fabrics. Fabric stores always have 50% off sales, so just ask when the next one is coming and sign up to receive the store coupons via mail. If you've found a pricey fabric, again the best option is to wait for a sale or use a coupon.

When buying fabric, head straight to the clearance section and see if you can find something there first. You don't need a really thick foam, so buy something a little thinner or skip it all together to save some money. It can be expensive if you need a large amount. A few tips on buying your materials: When buying foam, wait for a half off sale or until you have a coupon. It's that simple.

Do the same thing with your fabric and then secure the entire headboard to the wall. Next, lay the batting on top and secure to the back with a staple gun. Either use a staple gun to attach or use spray adhesive if your foam is a little thicker. You can use any size foam depending on how cushy you want the headboard to be. The next step is to attach your foam.

Take your measurements before you go and then ask them to cut the piece to the right size for you. You can find plywood at any home improvement store. For this fabric covered headboard you will need: plywood, foam, batting, fabric and a staple gun.
