Scroll Headboard - $499.00 [ Link ]
I like this tall Scroll headboard with a French feel. It's just plain enough to be elegant but not overdone.
by West Elm
Upholstered Queen Headboard - $799.00 [ Link ]

by Wisteria

The deeply sloped corners on this headboard by Bernhardt make it stand out.
by Neiman Marcus
Mara Bed With Antique Brass Nailheads - $799.00 [ Link ]
The crisp and clean angles in this bed give it such a modern look. A couple of antique side tables would be heavenly foils to it. And of course, I love the nailhead trim.
by Ballard Designs
Squire Headboard Slipcover, Greek Key - $149.00 [ Link ]
I like the Greek key trim on this headboard. I think it would look snappy on a couple of twin beds, as well as on a queen or king.

Skyline Furniture Tufted Wingback Headboardr - $558.99 [ Link ]
Here is a tufted and winged headboard, and with nailhead trim to boot. Choosing between a tufted or a flat front is going to be hard.

by Pottery Barn
'Bristol' Tufted Headboard - $3,499.00 [ Link ]

by Neiman Marcus
Vienne Headboard With Metal Bed Frame - $1,195.00 [ Link ]

by Bernhardt

I like the more ornate design on this headboard. It's a real standout and would work equally well in a bedroom with traditional or modern decor.
by Century Furniture
Grace Headboard, Parchment Ivory Shantung - $499.00 [ Link ]
I like the fanciful high arch on this headboard from Z Gallerie. I like the idea of a little height on the headboard.

olldbobbi It is so EASY to make an upholstered headboard! And when you make your own, you can also make a few slipcovers to change the look seasonally or for the holidays.

cherylgoldstein Where can I buy the tree branch bedding shown in the first picture?

Lily Gahagan Hi Cheryl,

The bedding in that first picture is from West Elm, though it doesn't look like it's available on their website any longer. You might want to try one of the stores just in case they still have some in stock.

Victoria Larson Textiles Don't forget it's easy to make an upholstered headboard in any shape and fabric you choose.

Brenda Greer I love upholstered headboards but worry about keeping them clean. I just dust my wooden ones. I am not great on vacuuming and have two dogs. With fibromyalgia I have little interest in or stamina to house clean much of the time.

dlrs11 I would love to find the tufted headboard shown on Dear Lillie blog or shabbychicgirls. blog but these aren't available where they got theirs. Other websites that have similar ones got bad reviews. Any ideas? Just want a plain white queen size.

swginokc Watfair and Amazon carry many headboards made by Skyline. I bought the Triesta in Pewter, but they have one in Buckwheat (off-white). There are other tufted modes, if this isn't to your taste.

agmay Any feedback re: benefits/drawback on headboard only vs. complete bed setup?
6 months ago ·
swginokc Personally, I would just get the headboard, not the full bed set up. It costs less and gives the effect. To me, the full bed would gather more dust and dirt and take more care. I have cats, and they would use the bed base as a scratching post too.

Gina Fitzsimmons ASID I wanted to show you this Queen headboard that is upholstered with a white matalasse embossed in a coral pattern. The special detail of a trough of sea shells and sea glass really puts it over the top! It retails at Details of Design in Annapolis, Md. for $1,200.00 and is absolutely beautiful.

Gina Fitzsimmons ASID Here is a custom headboard the we upholstered for the Master Bedroom in a high rise. We also used a matalasse coverlet with custom made pillows and shams. It helps to keep the cost down on the bedding.

Gina Fitzsimmons ASID Here is one of my favorite headboards! We took our cue from the oriental style nightstands when designing the shape. The cheetah fabric on the banding really set off the seagreen background of the headboard.
