Pegboard Headboard

I have been on the hunt for the perfect headboard DIY for a while now.

I’ve fallen in love with everything from reclaimed wood to mis-matched frames as headboard decor, but my indecisiveness kept me from committing to any one of them.

Eventually, I decided on creating a headboard from pegboard pieces so that I could change things up as much as I’d like without my walls looking like they’d been attacked by DIY’s. Here’s how you can make your own:

Materials needed:

  • Pegboard
  • Dry wall screws
  • Clear spacers
  • Pegboard hangers
  • General mounting tools

Instructions:

(I used four pegboard squares because we had no way to transport the size we needed in one go, but if you have the means, buying one large piece is easier.)

  1. Get a general idea of the layout you want, then measure & mark.
  2. Anchor dry-wall screws to the wall, and then place clear spacers between the wall and pegboard before screwing them in place.
  3. Continue with the remaining boards.
  4. Use pegboard accessory hangers to decorate!
