    Measure the width of your headboard and decide how high you want it and buy a 4x8 piece of plywood. 1/2 to 3/4 inch. Pick out some durable material and padding from a fabric store. Buy enough to cover front and back. Cut the material and padding to cover the front. Measure and cut your padding and attach it with some glue or a hot gun glue so it doesn't move. Leave enough fabric to fold over the edge onto the back and staple. Take the rest of the fabric and cut it so you have enough to fold under on all sides to hide the staples on the back of the headboard. Use gold tacks or a color you want to attach the fabric. Hope this helps you. Good luck.
