Wood Headboards

Wooden bedhead design styles have adorned bed chambers since ancient times. It is the original building material and, for many epochs, the only one available. There’s no surprise that wood is by far the most traditional headboard material, and it’s great for all mattress sizes, from twin, to queen bedheads to king headboards.

Wooden bedhead offers the advantage of tough, sturdy construction. In addition, wood headboards are one of the more straightforward materials for a DIY project, perfect if you are not highly experienced.

If you think you might be up to a DIY wood headboard project, many online tutorials show how to build a bedhead from many wood substrates, such as framing lumber or wood pallets.

Upholstered Bedhead

Not everyone wants a bedhead design they might see on the set of Game of Thrones. You may prefer a softer, more modern bedhead style. Upholstered headboards fit this bill. Upholstered headboards consist of soft padding with fabric stretched over it to create a pillowy bedroom effect.

These types of bedheads cushion your head and give you a cozy place to recline for reading or scouting the selection of wooden headboards on Game of Thrones. Upholstered headboards are often tufted with large buttons in the fashion of a gentleman’s armchair. Variety is no problem because they come in several shapes, colors, and sizes. Also, you can reupholster these types of headboards, either because they need reconditioning or you want to change the style.

They are also DIY-friendly. All you need are a few tools, enough time, and a helpful instructional video.

Wall-Mounted Headboard

No rule says you must choose a bedhead that fits into your bedroom set. Wall-mounted, designer bed heads are an attractive option that connects to the wall behind your bed. This gives you more room, allowing for a larger, more impressive headboard design.

Wall-mounted headboards come with several other advantages. For starters, they make it much easier to clean behind the bed because pulling it away from the wall is much simpler than when you have an attached bedhead. In addition, should you want to change your headboard, you avoid the hassle and expense of replacing your bed just for a new look!

Panel Bedhead Designs

Panel headboards have gained popularity as a semi-upholstered, semi-contemporary blend. These stylish headboards come in kits. They have separate panels and brackets that you mount on the wall. This gives you the option of the upholstered design in a wall-mounted headboard. Size is also flexible: You can use as few or as many as you want.

People tend to like the mature, sophisticated look they provide to the bedroom, which is well-balanced with a softer, more welcoming feel. Plus, the panels allow you to create your unique headboard style.

Floor-to-Ceiling Headboards

Do you want to make a statement? Then floor-to-ceiling headboards are the way to go. These imposing decor pieces are sure to be the first thing anyone notices upon entering your bedroom.

Floor-to-ceiling headboards serve as accent walls with many additional design options. They can be decorated in virtually any way and matched to every color palette.

Floor-to-ceiling headboards are wall-mounted and come in one piece or as panels. You also have the option of creating a self-crafted bedhead if you are artistically inclined. You can build a plywood frame to create depth or use various other methods to enhance your wall-to-ceiling bedhead.

Artistic Design Headboards

If you are an artist or a collector, consider an artistic design bedhead. These styles of headboards give you a place to display your passion. The wall behind your bed is essentially a blank canvas. Why not fill it with the artistic treasures or designs you adore?
