Decorating With A Fabric Covered Headboard

By Kerri Stout


There several strong advantages to purchasing these bed accessories. A fabric covered headboard is easily maintained and cleaned. They do not cost large sums of money as compared to most of the other metal or wood styles and a wide selection is available in both shops and stores as well as from online sources. The best feature is that no foot board is necessary. Many times it works best to be without one as they block views of scenery through glass windows or doors or obstruct a view to a television screen in the room. Most motel and hotel beds do not have them for exactly this reason. .

The advantages to using these wonderful bed additions are numerous. First of all, they are relatively inexpensive when compared to the metal, wrought iron or wood models. They are very easily maintained and cleaned. The variety to be had is endless and are quickly located in stores or in a search of online sources. The best thing is that a foot board can be eliminated. It just gets in the way sometimes anyway and blocks views of the television and outdoor scenery.

The main materials used can look absolutely amazing against a wood-paneled or painted wall. It will enhance the room by adding interest, personal style and texture. For example, a light green fern pattern would look fantastic against a dark green wall. An off-white linen would be astounding against a wall with rustic texture.

The bed additions can be purchased in a variety of styles. Curved, straight, rectangular, or ultra simple are just a few of the styles available. Sizes can be found for any bed whether it be of full, twin, queen or king dimensions. An odd-sized or shaped bed can have it custom made for even more impact.

There are so many fabrics to select from and the piece can be upholstered in almost everything from silk to polyester. Linen and suede are also excellent choices. For example, if you have a serene, tropical style with numerous plants and greenery in your room, adding a watered silk piece against a tan or green wall will bring out your theme even more.

Special upholstery touches can make a huge difference. The extra padding will make it look richer and more eleant. Deeper tufts will look truly refined and nail heads can give a masculine touch to the furnishings. For children's styles, attempt to eliminate any buttons, nail heads or other extras that can be pull from the furnishing.

Some variations most don't think of could include floral patterns, checks, plaids, two-tone material, and even an interesting combinations of an upholstered style with a wooden trim. Adding tall headboards can make a tiny, close-in room feel bigger with the illusion of more vertical space. Early American or French Provincial posts can be easily added to the sides of different models so the furnishings will all match. Adding vintage children's print material to the models chosen can add instant impact to a youngster's room.

This type of sensible purchase is easy and inexpensive to add to your room. It is easily changed when new tones and shades are selected or a new decor is put in place. A good upholsterer can replace the out-of-date and shabby material with new styles and designs, keeping your look always fresh and updated.
