Ever since I can remember – and if I tell you how many years then I’d be dating myself – 😂 – headboards have been traditional and boring! There used to be “bedroom suites” with all the furniture pieces being “matchy matchy”. UGH – so dull. But not anymore!
Now – anything goes and I’m so thankful for designers and creative types thinking outside the box in order to liven up our tranquil sleeping space. The bedroom is a sanctuary for renewing our body, mind and spirit as we sleep…but it doesn’t have to be unimaginative! Of course, each individual has a different sense of what will relax and revive them. For some, minimal spa-like surroundings enable them to fall into a peaceful slumber. For others, a room which inspires their mind visually, can bring comfort and tranquility.
I’m in love with all of these headboard designs…and each one creates a different feeling for me. Let’s see which is your favorite!
