Wall-Style Headboard Ideas for the Master Bedroom

A bed of any size without a headboard is a bed that looks incomplete and not nearly as attractive as it could, but an attached headboard is not necessary to complete the look of a bed in a master bedroom. Some of the most stylish master bedroom headboards are designed using wall art decor, and these types of master bedroom headboards look surprisingly more impressive than most standard headboards of any size or style. Best of all, canvas oil paintingsand wrought iron wall hangingsare usually less expensive than actual headboards, and they are very easy to mount and transform into a stylish headboard that looks like it goes with the bed. 

Canvas Art

Add matchless color, unique patterns, dimension, and style by mounting large works of canvas art above the head of the bed in the master bedroom. Select a work of art with three panels, and to make the works of art fit the width of the bed, space the panels evenly to create the headboard. Canvas panels are designed to be spaced if necessary, and they are perfect for creating a colorful and stylish headboard that will add a dimensional look to master bedroom walls.

For something truly different, consider combining two different groupings of canvas art that coordinate well together as well as with the style of the room. A wall-style headboard does not require right angles and straight lines to look stylish. Arrange the canvas paintings at varying heights above the head of the bed for added interest and designer appeal. This eye-catching and creative technique is especially impressive when decorating a contemporary master bedroom.

Large Wrought Iron Wall Hangings

A large wrought iron wall hanging makes a fantastic wall-style headboard in a master bedroom. Select a large wrought iron half circle, or multiple half circles to span the width of the bed. A large round wrought iron work of art is also an excellent choice, as is a set of rectangular wrought iron panels. They can be evenly spaced to span the width of the bed, or two sets can be purchased to accommodate a queen or king-size bed in a master bedroom. Keep in mind that wrought iron wall hangings can be mounted in any direction, and a combined set can be artfully arranged to create a very unique wall-style headboard of any size.

Large Framed Mirrors

Another creative wall-style headboard can be created using a series of large framed wall mirrors. For an extravagant and highly unique master bedroom display, select framed wall mirrors encrusted with hundreds of beautiful crystals. They will catch the light and look exceptionally brilliant, but any high-quality set of framed mirrors will look outstanding over the head of the bed.

A master bedroom headboard can be designed using almost any type of wall hanging. Consider the style of your master bedroom as well of the style of existing decor before selecting a creative headboard. The most creative headboards of all are designed using wall decor that will look far more impressive than any attached headboards could ever look. With wall decor and interesting home accents, the options for decorating a master bedroom and creating artistically crafted headboards are virtually endless.
