4 Reasons you need a bedhead

A guide to the latest styles - by Laura Barry

4 Reasons you need a bedhead
Cath Muscat

A resurgence in the popularity of bedheads has seen a new wave of designers and retailers tackle this bedroom mainstay, and the results are stunning. From wicker and timber to tufted upholstery or ornately-shaped, there’s a bedhead to suit any room regardless of your taste, style or budget. Here are four reasons why your bedroom needs a bedhead.

Bedheads have transformative powers

A well-chosen bedhead can transform the look and feel of a bedroom in a matter of minutes. Depending on your style, you can get something large and grand, glam, small and sophisticated or even country style. Whatever look you’re trying to achieve in your room, simple adding a bedhead will help you do it.

It’s a budget friendly redecorating tool

Bedheads can be purchased at many different price points, from affordable retailers and high-end designers alike. This, paired with the ability of one bedhead to transform an entire space, means that with one simple purchase you can transform the entire feel of a room without spending a cent more – one and done.

They’re space efficient

A bedhead may be a huge style-statement, but they don’t take up a lot of floor space, meaning they can usually be snuggled into any space, regardless how small. In addition to this, bedheads with concealed storage make for a sneaky way to add extra shelving to a bedroom without adding to visual clutter.

They elevate your style

A bedhead creates a focus point in a bedroom and sets the scene for the overall look or theme you are trying to achieve. Because a bedhead often speaks for itself, you don’t need an overly designed room, meaning even the blandest of white bedrooms can be elevated with an eye-catching bedhead, and make the entire space feel as though you meant it to look like that.

This pregnancy has me so tired I just want to nap the afternoon away but then I have to work, sigh! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Loving this bedroom by @our_forever_farmhouse darned with a @sweetwaterdecor candle in the corner. Choosing relaxing scents for the bedroom like our Lavender or Eucalyptus Spearmint will help you relax after a long day!

No ja jednak bez szarego żyć nie potrafię 😃❤️❤️❤️ Uparłam się zakasałam rękawy i pomalowałam. Kolor zrobiłam sama mieszając białą farbę z czarnym barwnikiem ✌️😍A efekt przerósł moje oczekiwania! ♥️Uwielbiam połączenie bieli i szarości, ale to dobrze wiecie 🙈😂 Wreszcie widać pięknie zagłówek i białe meble 😍 Zamocowałam nowe plakaty i po raz setny mamy trochę nową sypialnie 😃 Dziewczyny my jak chcemy to możemy! 💪 Nie wiem, jak Wam się widzi to miejsce ale ja tu czuje się tak rewelacyjnie i komfortowo! ❤️ Czas zabrać się za ścianę nad biurkiem 😁Ale ja lubię to urządzanie, że hej! ❤️😃 #mybedroom#bedroomdecor#bedroom#bedroominspo#bed#bedding#interiordesign#interiordesigner#interior_and_living#interiordecor#interiorstyling#sypialnia#relax#littlethings#mylife#myroom#homedesign#goodvibe#vscogood#apartmenttherapy#mybdrm#cozyhome#scandinaviandesign#poster
