*thick* diy velvet headboard for a colorful minimal bedroom makeover! w/

[@melissarusso5726]

An electric turkey knife will cut foam (pronounce any way you like). I worked at Joann fabrics and cut lots of foam that way!

[@carmenemerson9288]

Like buttah!

That's what I was going to say LOL That's what I use as well

The elites working together. I love it

Momma is the best. She brought Pup Pup a present! You are blessed. Happy Mother's Day Mom!

[@lengelkamp13]

I just recently found your channel and I'm in love. I've been binging everything. I have the unbridled confidence that I can do any diy project and I love that we match that energy.

[@DIYDanie]

Ahh welcome! ✨ Love that confidence!

She def makes you feel like you can do ALL THE THINGS!

I love that your mom helped you with this. Very cool.

You and your mom in time for US Mother's day. Makes me miss my mom. You are so blessed.

[@kathrynpedulla8952]

Got my coffee on my back porch ready to enjoy the DIY. I’ll be thrifting later too so this is a perfect start to my morning!

[@DIYDanie]

Have a great time!

[@debstrout1844]

I love it when you and your mum get together, you can just tell you appreciate each other's talent and HUMOR! The bed turned out so good, I imagine there'a a lot of people trying to find plywood, foam and velvet right now to make their own!

[@rebeccapotts133]

I LOVE this headboard! I can't wait to see how it turns out. Just a little .... hack? on cutting foam. Use an electric carving knife. Like one you would use for carving a turkey. Works great!

[@buibae1248]

Carving knife approve!

[@pamelagreen8543]

Yes!!

[@Jen_S_Hassler1258]

Was thinking the same thing on the knife, but I was also wondering if it would make as much of a mess as that video clip of past foam hacking (bits of foam flying around and all.) I've never done it myself, but have heard it's the way to go.

[@mugglemom9135]

@@Jen_S_Hassler1258 it actually cuts very clean...no foam flying, haha!

[@C1975-t7p]

Completely agree- have used it and it works amazing.

I’m glad I’m not the only one that frantically cleans before a parent comes 😊 it’s my dad for me! Love your channel 🖤🖤🖤

It’s so elegant. The velvet material elevates the simplicity to extravagance.

[@katiesullivan8566]

Strong work, Danie! And mom rocked that sewing. Mom energy!

That gorgeous headboard was definitely a two person job! It really is the pièce de résistance in Alexander’s fabulous room transformation.

Seriously, Dani. You can do, like, ANYTHING. Yes, please, more collabs with Team AG!!! Also, YOUR MOM!!!! This was so much fun. Thanks!

[@1234ryk]

I just love watching your channel.

[@hiimchuckiewannaplay]

Didn't think I would get emotional during a DIY video... but I used to do DIY projects with my mom growing up and its mother's day weekend and 😭... it was so nice seeing you bond with your mom. The headboard also turned out absolutely gorgeous. I actually came over from AG's channel... loved how you said "once gater gets in there" - so cute! Instant subscriber. You really make it look so deeply fulfilling to do what you do and I have to support that!

[@denzilliebich8572]

ABSOLUTELY LOVE it when you and Team AG work together!!! Dynamite.

[@alicejump2290]

Mom’s help is priceless! Great job! Blessed and safe days!

[@stephaniewhorley8439]

Your the best! I too panick clean when my mom visits especially making sure no crumbs in the toaster😂.

[@joantrotter3005]

We used to clean for days before my Mom would visit, and it still wasn't clean enough for her! But I watched Hoarders, and feel much better 😉.

[@abmoralesrosado]

So good seeing you both working together! Danie it’s beautiful. I love that pink fabric it’s the perfect pink!

[@megand576]

Will you be creating a blog post with details such as how much fabric you purchased, dimensions, etc? You made this headboard look so possible for someone not so wood-worky like me so I’m going to give it a go in my bedroom. Thanks for always creating awesome DIYs!

[@thesnoopydance645]

Thanks to Danie's mom ! For loaning your skills and also, raising Danie, she's pretty cool. 💛

[@Idontwantachann]

Good job! BTW, I like the softness of your video..The lighting is so moody and really catches the vibe of the morning and “normally” darker areas that aren’t normally shown in videos.

[@dominicdelacruz4572]

I love it when you and AG are together. That headboard was dazzling. Your mom is as cool as you are. ♥️

[@lisamartin704]

I love seeing you colaborate w/your amazing mom!

This is my FAV AG room EVER. EVER EVER EVER. It's moody and feminine and rich and relaxing and sophisticated and PERFECTION.

[@Cole_Cross]

I'M SO IMPRESSED WITH THE HEADBOARD!!!!!

[@zweikleinetornados8604]

I love you doing like a behind the scenes, where we see how cool and fun you all are together, you and Alexandra and of course all the AG Team. I love your collabs, more please, you guys are just epic! I love the headboard you did. Me and my sons (6 and 9) love to watch your videos Danie, especially your intros and nerdy stuff. You’re really amazing and inspiring!!!

[@lechatbotte.]

It’s SaturDIY with Danie. Even if she didn’t do amazing DIY etc I’d still watch because she and Kenobi rock our world.

Love the DIY Danie and Team AG colabs!! They are my favorite!!!!

[@ellenmason3833]

Last weekend was oddly disconcerting. No Dani video was icky, but knowing it was for Covid reasons was rather worrisome. So glad you are healthy and happy and back to creating for your soul and mine! 😘😘😘😘

[@gabrielleg.1347]

This was such a great DIY and incredible collab! Would love you guys to do more makeovers together!

[@astzfat3319]

Lovin' the textured look of the wall.

[@mimijohnson7714]

Of all the projects I’ve ever seen you do, THIS ONE I could’ve helped out with! IDK if the apartment y’all are working on allows you to put holes in the wall but hanging it imo is easier. However I’m about to have to make another headboard in a new house and well not sure I can hang it up like my previous one so this actually turned into an instructional video for me.😁 Great job, the headboard looks absolutely beautiful! Oh and seeing you work with your mom was so fun!

[@asblinda]

So nice to see you and Alex together again.

[@heavenlyglamhome3688]

When you said "I'm bringing in help" I knew, I KNEW, it would be your Mum. She is so sweet and funny. Love when she's in your videos.

[@pamjohnson3907]

A tip I picked up working at a fabric store is use an electric knife to cut your foam. That’s what we used in the store. Cuts like butter 😊

[@margaretkellymurphy5537]

I love when you two work together. The headboard makes the room. Simple and so beautiful.

[@Kris2397]

I've used an electric meat knife, I bought at the thrift store too cut foam and it worked nicely :)

[@jodiemim8584]

this is the answer! it works great.

[@judyshort38]

Mom to the rescue! Great headboard and I am really looking forward to seeing your backyard projects come to life!

[@ellenmason3833]

Also, one of those old school, serrated, electric turkey carving knives is the BEST foam cutter. I thrifted one years ago and it’s still cutting

[@sazennonumber]

Love the headboard how it turned out. Loved everything and your mom is fun and talented. So happy when you create with Alexandra - I feel a really good friendship.

Was just coming in with the same electric carving knife suggestion. I worked with foam quite a bit for a while, and that was my tool of choice. (note: It was also the tool of choice for the foam shop where I bought my foam pieces, and I just followed their lead.)

[@helenmoore8743]

Works like a charm!! 😊

[@amsbmp]

Yes, more Collab... Loved it. You nailed it as always. Ty for sharing..

[@lk-ol2jt]

I learned many years ago that the best thing to cut foam is an electric knife (as in, from the kitchen). I often see them in thrift stores, so you might be able to pick one up for a couple of bucks.

[@teszter704]

This had the oldschool Buy or DIY feel to it 🥰

[@mariag1362]

[@coletteduran457]

Dani, I love watching and learning from your channel. BUT, sometimes you leave out details I would love to know. Like, how did you decide on the amount of fabric you got? How did you decide how deep/wide/tall to make the headboard? Certainly you planned that all out before you cut anything? Ya know what I mean? Are you picking up what I’m putting down? Also, why did you cut out strips of foam and glue them around the edge instead of glueing a solid piece of foam onto the plywood. Is the front of the headboard cushy (besides the thickness of the fabric)? I always look forward to your uploads, thanks!!

[@josephinedeck9821]

Love this headboard & colab team AG & DB

[@jacquelinebrown6596]

You did amazing on the headboard! I'm watching Gaters video too. I had to see how you made this! Good job!⚘

I think I mentioned this last time, but when I worked at Jo-Ann Fabrics, we used an electric turkey cutter to cut foam.
