Upholstered Headboards

There is nothing I love more in the world of interiors than designing custom upholstery. It is what I live for. There is just something about being able to sit down and draw out a piece of furniture, (whether it be a sofa, chair, bench, headboard, ottoman, etc.) and then select the perfect fabric, throw in some wonderful details such as tufting or trims or nailheads and then see your creation come to life! (Of course it's not really this simple or glamorous, there is a lot of time and money that goes into creating custom upholstered pieces from the original idea, to sketching it out, to getting quotes, placing orders, making sure you have the correct yardage, creating work orders, it can all be very time consuming.) None the less, it's a process that I love and enjoy. Below are a few upholstered headboards I found via House Beautiful that serve as future inspiration for me. Which one is your favorite shape?
