Wallpaper Headboard

A wallpaper headboard uses a single strip of wallpaper as a headboard. Inexpensive and dramatic: a focal point without clutter.

For the headboard: apply 1-2 strips of wallpaper behind the bed, the width of the bed and up to the ceiling. Panoramic pattern for dramatic effect, textured for subtlety. Frame with molding for a finished look.

Pitfall: repetitive patterned wallpaper that looks like hotel room upholstery. A panoramic or original pattern makes all the difference.

A wallpaper headboard is generally less durable than a classic headboard. It can peel or deteriorate over time, especially in areas subject to high humidity. It is therefore best to consider it as a temporary decoration and replace it regularly.

To maintain your wallpaper headboard, use a soft, dry cloth to gently dust the surface. Avoid contact with water or cleaning products that could damage the wallpaper. In case of a stain, dab gently with a damp cloth and then dry immediately.

For a successful installation, carefully measure the space where the wallpaper headboard will be placed. Choose a pattern appropriate to the size of your bed and allow for extra wallpaper for the edges. Apply the wallpaper carefully, smoothing out wrinkles and ensuring it is perfectly aligned.

While a wallpaper headboard is an interesting decorative solution, it is not necessarily suitable for all bedrooms. In humid rooms like bathrooms, it may degrade more quickly. Also consider the general ambiance of your bedroom before making this choice.

The main quality of a wallpaper headboard is its affordability and ease of installation. Compared to a wooden or fabric headboard, it allows you to easily change styles without a major investment. Moreover, it takes up little space and offers the freedom to rearrange your bedroom at will.
