Weekend Project No. 2: Embellish a Headboard

Photo:  Louis Gaillard Réalisation : Pascale Chastres, Alix Chatillon

An adorable idea for a headboard; home decor mimics fashion with these felt flowered embellishments. Wool cut out flowers (make or buy) and attach to a like coloured headboard. This one in linen.  Simple and feminine. From Marie Claire Idées.

I don't have a headboard to embellish but I really need to. This is so cute.

Caroline - there is no login - nor are there any directions (sorry) - this is only inspiration to give you an idea. But here is a link to many links on how to make felted flowers:

Hope that helps.

I loved the headboard. Unfortunately my bed doesn't have one; but, I would keep the idea in mind if I ever decide to get a headboard.
