If anyone is looking for an amazing and unique headboard in king size and has $524.95, I say go for this beauty from Anthropologie.
{or you could buy a t-shirt there for the same price}
After about 0.002 seconds of admiring this gem, my fabric radar went off and I realized that is the same orangey-red/persimmon fabric on the famous and fabulous Asrid chair. This picture of the fabric here on the chair helps to give you a sense of the scale of the headboard. Big and beautiful.
Just please don’t tell me about it if you do end up buying the bed.

Also up for your consideration…this ($749.95 for a king)
Which has a striking resemblance to this. Though definitely not as cool.

LOVE the bedheads they are stunning! I like your blog too!
I love the fabric on the astrid chairs. I want that headboard.
I actually like the blue fabric on the anthro knock-off better than the original red embroidered fabric. Don’t hate me.
Ha ha I love your joke about either buying the headboard or a t-shirt. I love Anthro, but there stuff is so pricey. I worked there during my college years for a bit and even with a 40% discount a still couldn’t afford anything.
Yeah, the $500 is always the sticking point, but you do have great taste.
I’d love to see a kid’s version in a twin. This style would be so cute and cheeky in a girl’s room.
The second picture with the blue headboard is how my whole house would end up looking if I spend $500 on a headboard. No money left for paint on the walls or any other decor whatsoever.
Maybe someday.
Mrs. Petrie – I totally agree with your thoughts on using a headboard like this for a kids room. That is actually my plan for our next house!
Carolyn – I hear you on the $500 is pricey thing. Can you believe that these are more than half off? Furniture is so expensive…
I know you will come up with a way to make one and it will only cost…say….$50! I’ll be waiting for the tutorial. And I love the fabric for the head board featured in cookie magazine the very very most.
Could you possibly do a post on decor that would go with the red headboard? Sheets, wall decor…I love it but the only thing I can think of to go with it is white which might just drive me crazy.
I bought the queen version of this headboard in the blue print during the summer of 2008 for 50% off. I immediately recovered it in Pottery Barn’s linen, still available for $9/yd online at http://www.housefabric.com. Here’s my revised headboard: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3070/3073536478_c8630f94cd_b.jpg
do you have the link to the cookie magazine photo? I would love to see a bigger picture of the bedding she chose to go with the headboard. Thanks! (LOVE your blog!)
Hey Erin,
Unfortunately, I think that is the full-size picture from Cookie. I’ve never seen anything bigger. I’m sure she used white linens though, with maybe an accent color by way of a band (hotel bedding style) or embroidery. Pottery barn has some great, price-sensitive options for this type of bedding.
You wouldn’t want to use any pattern on the bed – maybe a ticking stripe at most – so that the beautiful embroidery on the headboard can shine over, not compete with the rest of the bed.
Hope that helps a little,
Jenny
Great designs. Headboards give your bedroom a better look and I'm using the one that I bought from Ballard Designs. They are lovely.
