Create A Holdall Headboard

Turn your bedroom into a storage mecca with this clever idea.

Fashion a functional headboard from modular cubes that click together to hold everything from basics to baubles. Stacked up behind a bed, this geometrical configuration packs a graphic punch, while adding loads more storage in a typically underused space—a real perk, especially in smaller homes and apartments. Since each square acts as a mini vignette, style them to showcase interesting books, art and accents. Hidden from view, lower cubbies are perfect for storing seasonal clothes or bedding.
