HEADBOARDS

As I mentioned in my last post I am decorating my guest room and was looking around for some headboard inspiration.  I want to do something inexpensive and crafty and am leaning towards a simple upholstered headboard, I just need to find some fabulous fabric.  


So in the meantime here's some interesting headboard ideas.

This one has a wealth of ideas for reusing vintage or antique pieces.  Large corbeils or column tops as side tables along with two doors as a headboard softened with drapery panels.

Shutters painted a soft sea glass blue would be adorable in a cottage or seaside home.

Just added this one from Maureen over at Maureen at Modecor Muses.  I love this one as well.  You can change it up with a quick cover change.

So which is your favourite?

I believe that every space can be comfortable, warm, elegant and beautiful. I would love to help you achieve your beautiful space!
