214 Bedheads

Bedheads help your bed stand out more

Headboards are an easy way to distinguish each room’s bed frame from the next. It’s always a good idea to avoid cutting corners when it comes to choosing bedhead material and frame. As these will likely stay with you for a long time to come, you’re better off choosing headboard styles that most match your decor and requirements.

Individual bedhead frames versus integrated bed headboards

While some bed frames do come with integrated bedheads, you can also choose individual frames that are distinct and highly stylised. The difference lies in how often you’re likely to change which part of the bed. If you like switching bedheads with each season, for instance, you’re better off with a separate bedhead option.

Different materials for more personalised headboards

The right material makes all the difference; choose one that matches your taste in home decor and you’ll be pleased with the results. Here are some interesting picks to consider:

Upholstered bedheads: These are covered in fabric and can be easily matched to different styles and patterns.

Headboards for wooden bed frames: Wood bedheads, made from solid timber, match wooden beds quite beautifully. Pair these for classic, rustic, or even country styled bedrooms.

Cane bedheads: These are great for a tropical, island or Asian themed bedroom.

Leather boards for a leather bed frame: Playfully contemporary or even classic, if tufted, a leather king bedhead is always a win.

Wrought iron: Not just for industrial decor, wrought iron is an excellent choice for its easy maintenance and structural versatility.

Another important consideration is to match bed frame size to bedhead size. Therefore, a king bedhead will accompany a king size bed and a queen bedhead will sit pretty with a queen size bed. These work well with decorative accents like bedding, rugs, artwork, rugs, throws, curtains and blinds. You could even design your own - simply turning a bedroom wall into a headboard, perhaps with a few shelves to fashion a bookcase or display area.
