My mother-in-law was visiting us so we ended up making this headboard together.
The next thing we needed wascotton batting(to make the headboard softer and plush).
My mother-in-law suggested using an old kids duvet one we no longer needed.
She explained that the cotton batting we needed to upholster the headboard was the same thing found in duvet.
I remembered my daughter had an old Minnie mouse duvet she no longer used, so we used that.
