— 1 to 1 1/2 inch foamand batting are both available atSwenson’s Outdoors in GrassValley. They supply it becausepeople often use it as campingbedding.
— For decorative fabric, Isuggest Ben Franklin or FabricBoutique which both offerinteresting and diverse uphol-stery remnants and otheroptions. You should describewhat you want to do and askfor assistance finding a fabricthat would work for upholstery.
I’ve done many versions ofupholstered headboards. And Ilike all of them because theywere styled appropriately forspecific situations.
One is a blend of cleancontemporary lines and soft,feminine curves. A rectangularupholstered center is borderedby a large frame covered in afaux leather treatment.
The faux leather treatmentI created using craft paperwhich I stained dark brown andwaxed. Because craft paper isfibrous, when it is stained andwaxed, the leather illusion isquite believable and beautiful.
Sconces with built-intouch light dimmers wereinstalled in the frame. Thesecurvy, sparkly sconces are func-tional, feminine andreminiscent of jewelry. Theybalance the masculine-femininefeel of this bed perfectly.
Another creation wasstyled for a guest room meantto feel like a B&B getaway. Inthis case, a blue and yellow col-or scheme drove me to use afabric with a micro-plaid pat-tern and to make theheadboard look like a wingback chair.
While this headboard wasa bit more complicated than flatupholstery, I simply attachedthe upholstered “wings” usingL-Brackets fastened under thefabric. So it wasn’t too complex
and it is a one-of-a-kind piece Icreated for a very special clientand for a special guest room.
The simplest type to makeis just a rectangular upholsteredheadboard. But for one bed-room, curves were needed tobreak up the many straightlines in the room. So a scrollpattern fabric and a classicallycurved shape for the top of theheadboard did just the trick.
This classic look is nottrendy (short-lived), and insteadwill always be stylish and canbe recovered at any time to alterthe look.
To be at our best, and getthe most out of life, we all needrest. So don’t skimp on any-thing related to it. Even if youhave a tight budget, or are hesi-tant to commit to a particularstyle, don’t do without … makeyour bed!

CRYPTOQUOTE
from New Jersey, shares herrecipe: “Grate two bars ofsoap (I used 4.25-ounceOlay Shea Butter bars) witha fine cheese grater. Pourgrated soap and 2 cups of
water into a saucepan. Heatover medium-low heat untilsoap is dissolved, about fiveminutes. Cool slightly. Thesoap should have the con-sistency of whole milk atthis point. Pour into bot-tles. You can top off yourbottles with more water ifyou want. Cool overnight.
The bodywash should havethe consistency of meltedice cream when cooled. Usea nickel-sized dollop onyour bath sponge and latherup! I’m going to get a yearof use out of two bars ofsoap. I also replaced myfacial cleanser with this. Iteven works well for shav-
ing!”
