A DIY fan has revealed how he made his own headboard, without having to break the bank on a new one.
The savvy DIY whizz, who posts on TikTok under the handle George The Millennial, explained that he wanted to utilise the space in his bedroom and instead of splashing the cash on a fancy headboard, made his own on a budget, for just £4.
Sharing his DIY tutorial on the video sharing platform, George said: “Here is how to build a headboard for your bedroom, for just £4.
“I posted my bedroom transformation a couple of weeks ago and the response was crazy, thank you so much for all the nice comments.
“But I just felt there was something missing behind my bed.

“I want to have the impact of a headboard but without taking up any more space.
“So I’m trying to utilise my space in the bedroom as much as I can.”
George chose his colour and then in the clip we saw him paint the shape of a headboard onto his white wall.
He continued: “I’ve always been told to brush in the same direction, just to make the quality of the paint look matte.
“Here is the best part of the process – peeling off the paint is so satisfying.
“Here is the result – I got a whole headboard for £4.
“It looks effective and it’s cost-effective.”
