No bedroom is really complete without a headboard. Whether your bed is a compact twin or a stately king, a headboard completes the bed, and defines the space. But a headboard does not necessarily have to be a wood or metal piece that attaches to the frame of your bed. Ideas for your bedrooms headboard are almost unlimited and matching your headboard to your bedroom furniture is no longer necessary, unless you like the look. A unique headboard treatment can express your creativity, individuality and sense of style. So when it comes to accenting the head of your bed, look beyond the everyday options and create a look that is yours alone.
Some standard bed widths to keep in mind;
Twin Headboard @39” wide
Full Headboard @ 54” wide
Queen Headboard @ 60” wide
King Headboard @ 76” wide
California King Headboard @ 72” wide
Wrought Iron Headboards
Timeless, classical, a hand-forged wrought iron headboard is a perfect addition to any bedroom, be it yours, your child’s, or a guest room. Whether you have a twin, full, queen or king bed we are sure to have a hand forged headboard that is sure to share years of memories with you and your family.
Curtain Headboard Ideas
A headboard that works well with almost every style of bedroom furniture is a fabric one. One option is to simply hang fabric from curtain rods behind the bed either at the ceiling, or anywhere around 72-84”. Select decorative curtain rods that are slightly wider than the bed. Attach the drapery rod brackets to the wall and put the rod in place. You can use a curtain rods with 1-1/2” brackets work well with tapestries, and blankets. This headboard idea can also be used for displaying a rug in any room in the house. Just drape the rug over the rod or, if it has fringe, knot the fringe around the rod. Another possibility is to use leftover upholstery fabric and some batting, or a second comforter, to make a padded wall hanging.
Fabric Draped Crowns
One of our favorite headboard ideas uses drapery crowns. Fabric draped over a crown and swaged over scarf holders can frame a bed just as beautifully as it does a window. Our custom drapery crowns come with an adjustable mounting bracket that so they can be mounted 4-1/2” to 7” from the wall allowing fabric to be swaged through it creating a luxurious looking headboard.
Screen or Trellis Headboard
A wonderful headboard idea is created by using a room dividing screen or garden trellis. Decorative screens are also perfect for hiding unsightly walls or open storage areas. Depending upon the effect you desire, screens and trellises offer a variety of looks. Bamboo or rice paper screens are excellent for a minimalist or Asian inspired room, while an intricately detailed iron screen fits well into a more lavish atmosphere. Alternatively, a trellis complete with trailing foliage would fit wonderfully with a garden or cottage décor.
Metal Wall Art Headboard
Another of our favorite headboard ideas uses decorative metal wall art. Wrought iron is an age-old material that's finding new life inside and metal plaques and panels are ideal for adding texture and dimension to the bedroom. An iron gate, pressed tin panel or a large plaque can make a stunning headboard. Smaller sections of ironwork can also be hung on the wall over the bed.
Decorative Scarf Treatment
Our scarf décor brackets make scarf treatments easy. Each mounts directly to the wall with a welded bracket attached to the back of the ring. Just mount the scarf décor brackets to the wall and swag your fabric through them for quick – easy – and inexpensive bedroom headboard.
Faux Four Poster Bed
Four poster beds are beautiful and cozy additions to any bedroom, creating an aura of comfort and intimacy. The drawback: they're expensive to buy, but you can make a faux four poster bed with four butterfly rings and some fabric. Simply place a ring in the ceiling at each corner of the bed; hang a length of fabric from each and wrap the fabric around the ring at the top, tuck the raw edges in and allow the excess to puddle on the floor
Wall Shelf Headboard
Another idea for a unique bedroom headboard as well as additional storage can be fashioned with our decorative shelf brackets. Stagger a few shelves above your bed or line them up along each side of the bed and mount a fabric valance between them.
Don’t be shy – Allow your headboard ideas to be a reflection of your personal style. Why settle for the standard when you can use unexpected elements in unique ways to create amazing decorative statements.
