If your bedroom feels a bit blah, it could be because it’s lacking a focal point. A gorgeous bedhead or bed frame with plenty of wow-factor can easily take an uninspired room and turn it into something magazine-worthy. It could be upholstered in plush velvet fabric, it could be made from timber, wicker or could even incorporate hidden storage – the choice is yours.
Here we run through five reasons you need a stylish headboard and round up some of the best headboards and bed frames to shop now.
1. Bedheads have transformative powers
A well-chosen bedhead can transform the look and feel of a bedroom in a matter of minutes. Depending on your style, you can get something large and grand, glam, small and sophisticated or even country style.
Whatever look you’re trying to achieve in your room, simple adding a bedhead will help you do it.
2. It’s a budget-friendly redecorating tool
Bedheads can be purchased at many different price points, from affordable retailers and high-end designers alike.
This, paired with the ability of one bedhead to transform an entire space, means that with one simple purchase you can transform the entire feel of a room without spending a cent more – one and done.
3. They’re space efficient
A bedhead may be a huge style statement, but they don’t take up a lot of floor space, meaning they can usually be snuggled into any space, regardless how small.
In addition to this, bedheads with concealed storage make for a sneaky way to add extra shelving to a bedroom without adding to visual clutter.
4. They elevate your style
A bedhead creates a focus point in a bedroom and sets the scene for the overall look or theme you are trying to achieve. Because a bedhead often speaks for itself, you don’t need an overly designed room, meaning even the blandest of white bedrooms can be elevated with an eye-catching bedhead, and make the entire space feel as though you meant it to look like that.
5. They make your bed even more comfy
If you love to end your day with a book in bed, you’ll know how important it is to have a headboard that provides great back support. The best bedheads for this purpose include those that are angled back slightly or one that is upholstered in plush fabric. If you’re kind of obsessed with throw cushions,
