How to make it
Use spray adhesive outside with a mask, and get a grown-up to help lift the board.
1Size the board
Measure your bed's width. Have the store cut the plywood to that width and 30 in tall.
2Trim the foam
Lay foam on the board and cut it to match with a bread knife.
3Glue the foam
Spray adhesive on the board outdoors. Press the foam down and let it set 10 minutes.
4Wrap the batting
Lay batting on the floor, foam side down on top. Staple it to the back, middle of each side first.
5Wrap the fabric
Repeat with the fabric face down. Pull snug and staple every 2 in, working out from the middles.
6Fold the corners
Pleat each corner like a present. Trim extra fabric and staple it flat.
7Stand it up
Slide it behind the mattress. The bed's weight holds it against the wall.
Velvet hides staple wobbles better than cotton and looks expensive.
