ideas...sleepy head



painted headboard - my dream bed!!



It's Monday morning again and as usual I struggled that little bit more to get out of bed...With this in mind it seems apt to be posting today some ideas about headboards...
Headboards come in all shapes and sizes - I think it depends very much on the context of the room and home whether or not a headboard is really needed....Sometimes less is indeed more...

Headboards can be made of an array of materials - you don't necessarily need to spend a huge amount of $$ either.
How about -
i)Scouting second hand drift shops for old frames and have fun painting or distressing them
ii)Or perhaps, taking a beautiful poncho or piece of fabric and hanging it accordingly using a wooden or iron curtain rail. The image I have used here is from the home of dear friends of mine in Salta, northern Argentina - you can stay at their home too!
iii) Or using a favorite painting/of image and using that as the focal point.

Finally, you could even just paint a headboard - indeed this image has been on my 'wish list' for over 3 years now.. One day, one day!
