Happiness is a Yellow Upholstered Headboard

So, I’ve been diligently working to feather my new nest, and have discovered the following:

  1. I am unabashedly drawn to bright colors. Sunny yellow, in particular;
  2. While there is inspiration aplenty online for all-things-yellow, I’m hard-pressed to find any in-the-flesh versions;
  3. It’s practically impossible to find a yellow upholstered headboard.

I have become obsessed with the idea of a bright yellow, upholstered headboard. Obsessed. But, try as I might, I have been unable to rustle up even one viable option. And so, while feeling particularly whiny and despondent after an embarrassingly long online search (see: “yellow headboard” “fabulous yellow headboard” “upholstered yellow headboard” “why won’t anyone make a fabulous yellow headboard, dammit?”) I posed the query to my Facebook friends, hoping someone would send me a link to a magical site filled with nothing but fabulous, yel—oh, right. You remember. Anyway.

Because my Facebook friends are so gosh-darned smart, no less than five people immediately suggested that I make one myself, easy peasy. I mentally palm-smacked my forehead: of course! I’ve watched TLC! HGTV! All the other home improvement acronym television stations! I’m handy, and best of all, am very good at following instructions. So, that’s the plan. And while I’m drawing up my vision, I’m using these gorgeous images as inspiration:
