Tufted Headboard from Old Couch

[chezlin]

I'm extremely proud of this project I just finished, and I wanted to share it with you all!

I took this couch(on the right):


Removed the fabric:


Karate chopped it in half:


Foamed it up:


Began tufting:


Finished tufting:


Sewed up side pieces, stapled them on:

(Please excuse the messiness. I was in the middle of a big project;))

And ta da!:


I hope you guys enjoy this as much as I do! Yay tufted headboards(made from old ugly couches)!

I'm loving the "finished tufting" pic. That fabric - you could make whole couches awesome like that!

[Tropic_Rose]

Gasp! So genius!

[Myrdda]

as much as it pains me to see such a beautiful couch chopped apart, the headboard is stellar.

That is seriously gorgeous -- great transformation!

[Aliped]

Wow, this is brilliant!  I bet it's really comfy to lean against too! Well done!

That is awesome! And I'm guessing it keeps your head warm - away from the outside wall!

This looks soooo comfy.  What a great job, and I love the fabric you used, so elegant.
