Covering a headboard

[glenbar]

Has anyone ever covered a headboard? I bought a new one recently and now am not keen on the colour. Want to keep the shape though so thought I would have a go at covering it. Thanks

You can cover it with any frabric you like really, Pull the fabric tight and use a staple gun to secure it at the back, then cover the stapes with edging, either the same fabric or a contrast strip of fabric.

Is it an unusual shape?

No it isn't a difficult shape butit does have a sort of indent going across the whole width about 3/4 of the way down. I was wondering if I could somehow button it across there. Just dont want to go into buying all the tools, material etc if I am going to ruin it. Thank you
