I have a friend who somewhat honestly admits to being fickle when it comes to decor. Having asked her husband to rewallpaper a feature wall in their bedroom for the upteenth time, he suggested (rather resignedly) that he attach a sheet of MDF as a headboard behind the bed and wallpaper that instead – somewhat easier than redoing a whole wall the next time she discovers a new must-have design or pattern.
That got me thinking about how easy it is to be creative with a headboard – there’s so much scope for imagination, from paint effects, upholstered foam, wallpaper and anything your heart desires.
Ideal for open-plan bedrooms, a divider can be decorated however you choose
Why not take the headboard right up to the ceiling as in this Hill House Interiors scheme?
A wood surround with an upholstered interior makes a luxurious backdrop
This modern scheme from Hill House Interiors shows the headboard colours reflected in the blind fabric

Which one is your favourite? We’d love to know of any ideas you’ve come up with.
