Looking for an easy way to transform your space? Try a new headboard! Changing up your current headboard or adding one to your bed not only creates a cozier environment, but can also dramatically change the style and design of a bedroom.  From contemporary to classic, there are headboard solutions for everyone’s style, and the best part is that you can switch up your hea
dboard whenever you feel like a change!  For the bohemian enthusiast, try the Birds and Flowers headboard, available online from Urban Outfitters.  With its ornate and whimsical design, it will add a lot of style to your bed without taking up much visual space in your room, since it is a cut-out design.  For a contemporary feel, consider the Window Headboard or the Le
ather Grid-Tufted Headboard, both available from West Elm.   Both have visually appealing geometric elements, and are available in a variety of sizes and colors.  If you crave a vintage solution, check out the Hushed Hours Headboard available at Anthropologie.  With its perfectly distressed finished, it brings an antique inspired charm.   
 
 Another solution: the headboard decal!  There are many headboard decals available to suit any taste, and these eliminate the potentially tricky furniture assembly and space that traditional headboards require.  These adhere to the wall and can be removed.  A variety of styles are available online from such retailers as Etsy, where both the Ornate Tree with Little Birds wall art decal and the Dark Grey Harvest Flower Headboard Wall Decals are available.
