Simple Style: Paint Yourself a Headboard
A headboard can really be a great focal point for a bedroom, and just because you own a regular ol' bed doesn't mean it can't have a regal backdrop. So if you don't own a headboard, why not try painting one on?
I'm loving this idea from Point Click Home, and it would be very easy to recreate.

Cool Idea: Painted Stripes Headboard
I've written about painted headboards before (and even DIY'd my own), so it's really nothing new. But, I am loving how design firm Shelton, Mindel & Associates made the entire wall behind this sleeping space a focal point with bold stripes, and within that created a focal point above the headboard by painting stripes in a slightly lighter shade than the rest. This look is really easy and affordable to achieve in your own home.
Get the Look: Anna's Bedroom in The Invention of Lying
The Ricky Gervais comedy The Invention of Lying, which opens on Friday, features a slew of great actors, including Tina Fey, Jennifer Garner, Jonah Hill, Rob Lowe, and more. Buzz recommended it as a Fall comedy pick, and I'm definitely enjoying its great set design. In particular, I'm coveting Anna McDoogles's bedroom.
Ask Casa: Post-Grad Style
Hi Casa! I'm 22 and I just started my first job out of college. Unfortunately, I still live with my parents.
Cool Idea: Chalk Headboard in 500 Days of Summer
As I've mentioned before, 500 Days of Summer is full of design eye candy. One of my favorite décor ideas siphoned from the film is Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character's chalkboard wall headboard. Chalkboard paint, as you know, is quite trendy these days in the interior design world.
Open House: How Does Your Home Have a Sense of Humor?
Refinery29 recently toured the home of Vena Cava designer Lisa Maycock and while I did love the easy elegance of her home's "lost and found" look, what struck me most was its sense of humor. In a corner of her living room, she placed a wooden triangle pegged with metal spikes on her Marcel Breuer Wassily Chair. In her bedroom, a poster titled "Just Bone Me" with skeletons in kama sutra poses hangs above her bed.I once had a cocktail party, and lined the shelves of my medicine cabinet with medicine bottles filled with candy.
Before and After: Maebyfunke's Darling DwellStudio Bedroom
Two weeks ago, Maebyfunke asked me for advice on painting her bedroom to match her new DwellStudio Regency Bedding. I advised her to try a soft color, such as a cool, blueish green or a warm, pale yellow.
Well, Maebyfunke made quick work of repainting her bedroom.
Found It! Romantic Bed From July Free People Catalog
While flipping through the latest Free People catalog, my eye wasn't drawn to the clothes. Instead, I couldn't stop looking at this graceful wrought iron bed frame. The dual color tones here, with the gold on the interior of the headboard, and the rest of the frame covered in white, create a lovely effect.
How-To: A Trompe L'œil Headboard
A headboard can create a stately focal point for even the most meager of spaces, and just because your mattress sits on the simple bed frame that came with it doesn't mean your bed should be ignored. Whether you can't afford to buy a headboard or simply want to try something unique, you can paint a trompe l'œil headboard to achieve the same, if not more interesting, results! Inspired by the Brocade Home Open Carved Headboard, which is an all-time favorite of mine, I decided to transform one wall into this Rococo style headboard, with just a small can of paint and a Sunday afternoon.
Room Therapy: Help Me Make My Bedroom More Livable!
Hi Casa,
I'm a student who recently moved into a huge four-bedroom apartment with four other girls. We converted a den into a bedroom, which also means that my room opens into the sunroom. While there is a lot of space, there isn't closet space anywhere.
