10 of the Best Upholstered Bedhead Designs and Frames

I’m in the thick of it at the moment, specifying upholstered bedhead designs for a few of my client bedrooms (so much fun!). So, in the interest of sharing the love, I thought I’d reveal some of my fave styles with you today. I’m a giver like that!

In my own home, I’m just as obsessed with the idea of an upholstered bedhead. It brings such softness to a bedroom. And in so many cases, it elevates the room and makes it feel more sophisticated.

The other bonus an upholstered bedhead design brings to a room is variety. Often, bedrooms have bedsides, a tallboy, chest of drawers etc all in the same material. Throwing in a bed in the same finish can feel like a timber overload. But when you throw in some upholstery, you create a divine sense of balance.

Enough jibber-jabber from me though. Let’s take a look at 10 of the best upholstered bedhead designs and frames below. As always, I’ve included a variety of skimp and splurge options so all budgets are covered. I’ve ranked them from lowest price point to highest too. Enjoy!

This is a fun design that would be right at home in a guest bedroom, teenage boys room, or even an adult space that doesn’t take itself too seriously. It’s a look you can dress up or down, so it gets my vote on versatility alone. Totally worth the splurge.

Domayne is such a sublime treasure trove for stunning furniture. But the cheeky devils never publish their prices online, which is super frustrating. I’ve left this Peony bed frame design ’til last for that reason. It’s a personal fave of mine based on colour and shape, and I love how well it plays with white, brown, plum and beige tones. The thin legs make it feel super chic too, don’t you think?
