Buying a
Headboard
Since the bed
tends to the natural focal point of any bedroom suite, when
shopping for a headboard, you will want to select one that
will fit in with your existing decor yet give your bedroom a
new, updated appearance. And purchasing the headboard alone
will give the bed a more open feel. There are many styles
and types to choose from and this article will outline what
to look for when shopping for one.
When buying a headboard, make sure that it will match your
existing bed frame or the size of mattress you intend to
purchase. A twin bed will need a twin headboard and so forth.
However, some manufacturers will offer headboards that can
be used for both full and queen sized beds or for both queen
and king sized beds. Should you purchase one that can
accommodate different mattress sizes, keep in mind that
there will be a slight gap.
Take into account how much floor and closet space is
available. If your bedroom is smaller, consider buying a
bookcase headboard or one that includes hidden storage. As
well, they do not have to hold just books. The shelves can
hold items a nightstand might be typically used for,
eliminating the need for more than one nightstand and
thereby making the room look larger.
We tend to think of most bedroom furnishings as being
neutral, but selecting the wrong color of headboard can
clash with your existing color scheme. To avoid having to
repaint your room or buy new curtains, make sure that your
new headboard will blend in with the colors currently in the
room.
The headboard will set the tone of your bedroom. For a
relaxed, comfortable look, select a style that features
clean lines, open slats or soft curves in a light or medium
wood finish. To create an ultra-modern look, select one made
of metal that makes use of asymmetrical or geometric form.
Modern and contemporary styles are characterized by the use
of light finishes, light to medium woods like ash, pine and
oak, metals and space age materials.
A traditional style headboard is typically made of wood or a
combination of wood and metal.
For a dramatic eye-catching effect, the taller the
headboard, the more it will dominate the room, especially if
it has posts or is a specific style such as the curvaceous
sleigh bed. Traditional headboards encompass a broad range
of time periods, but generally characterized by carvings,
leaf or scroll motifs, and stylized architectural details
like ornate moldings.
When choosing a style, consider the current elements of your
bedroom suite as well as your personal likes and what makes
you feel comfortable. Whether you select traditional,
country, modern, contemporary or transitional, height and
scale of the headboard should not only fit the size of the
bedroom but should also match the style of headboard.
The above is a general guideline on how to select the ideal
headboard for your bedroom suite. With this in mind, you
should have all the necessary tools for you to make an
informed decision the next time you are shopping for a
headboard.
