My room is too small length-ways to consider putting a headboard behind my bed; I just don’t have enough (bed)room. It’s annoying as I think a headboard really finishes off a bedroom and makes it look smart. I had been toying with the idea of making something from a piece of foamboard covered with some gorgeous fabric but when I saw these headboard decals from Blik (forwarded to me by my wonderful friend Kelly) I thought they could be another really cool option.
Blik have several styles available in a range of sizes to suit double, queen and king beds, and in many different colours too. The decals are only $40 so not a major financial commitment, and if you get bored with it after a while you can simply unpeel it from the wall and you’re back to where you started. I may have to invest!

Maybe-later
What a fab idea!
I have a bedstead,and I hate it. Rickety old thing. I am definitely going to get a divan next time,, so these are perfect..I could have a bejewelled festooned headboard, then paint over it as I wish!

Exactly! I love the temporary-ness of these! You can peel them off whenever you get bored.

I love this idea and the first one is gorgeous, 40 bucks tho… How about stencilling your own…? A creative lass like yourself dearest Alex, you’d do wonders I bet!

Whisty, thanks for your confidence in my creative abilities but I reckon they only extend to words! I am singularly the worst artist of all time; I can’t stay inside the lines and stick figures are a big ask! However I may just ask an arty friend of mine if she has any ideas…

Well I never! In which case, it’s probably best that you do contact your arty pal… Otherwise you may be in for some rather peculiar dreams featuring Mr Messy of Mr Man fame… http://silentcartoonist.deviantart.com/art/Mr-Messy-s-Darkest-Nightmare-82333547
