Something I’m currently drawn to - statement upholstered headboards.
While the end results are gorgeous, they do tend to be expensive to make. Having a headboard made with a professional workroom can be upwards of $1K (making charges only, add on fabric!). Much more for larger sized beds. But it is possible to get it made for less, with a local craftsman willing to take on the project, or DIY it if you’re so inclined, using fabric and a staple gun (here’s a great DIY guide on how to make one).
And here’s 4 ways to do a dramatic headboard!
Upholster in a vibrant fabric. These twin beds are upholstered in Quadrille’s iconic Kazak (via Quadrille )
Add on a welt trim to punctuate the shape of the board (via Arent & Pyke)
Add on a contrasting trim. Love the effect, and on an aside, I’m loving the earthy tones in the room (via Coastal Living)
Repeat the headboard fabric (if it’s a softer pattern like the one above) in other areas of the room. Like here it’s tied in with the window treatments. The repetition completes the story beautifully (via Anna Burke Interiors)
