The headboard is a piece of furniture fixed or attached to the head of the bed. Originally, people used it to protect sleepers from cold drafts in less insulated buildings. Traditionally, people used less thermally conductive materials such as wood to make headboards. Wood causes cold air to reach the floor instead of making the bed cold. In the modern era, homes have improved heating and insulation but, people still like using headboards. Nowadays, we use them for decoration and other practical reasons. One of these reasons is to prevent pillows from falling off the bed. While reading in bed, you can prop the pillow against the bed and make yourself comfortable. You can use the space above the headboard for storing books, personal items, lights, and telephone. A good headboard design is practical, decorative, and matches the bedroom’s decor. Here are some marvelous headboard design ideas for your bedroom.
