I like articles like this one because they’re great for inspiration. I also agree with the author that headboards have transitioned from traditional functionality to a more decorative and even artistic role.

This article contains 34 DIY headboard ideas. Some are simple, while others are more elaborate. At the bottom of each headboard picture, you’ll find a link to the source site. I didn’t find any tutorials, but some of the headboards could easily be reproduced in a DIY project.

Here are some projects that I especially liked:

• Wooden door headboard
• Big picture headboards
• Salvaged barn wood headboard
• Chalkboard paint headboard
