When looking at a super kingsize headboard, one of the most important things to consider is just how large it is, and if you will even be able to fit it in your bedroom! Even if you are fortunate enough to have a grand sized bedroom, be sure to take measurements of the room, including the height (you will be surprised just how tall a super king-size headboard can be!). When considering the height of a headboard, consider how tall the board is from the floor and its distance from the lowest point of the ceiling. Should the top of the headboard come too close to that low point in the ceiling, it will "steal" away the appearance of depth in the room, and the ceiling will end up looking far lower than it actually is. The goal here is to have the headboard stop approximately half-way up the wall where it is to be placed. Measure the "halfway" point of that wall so you can estimate how tall you want your headboard to be.
You will also want to measure the area around the bed and see what furnishings may be in the way: can they be moved? Where will you place these in relation to the bed? You do not want to have your master bedroom feel "crowded" and far smaller than it actually is all because of the furniture that is in there.
Bed Headboards Only
During the renovation of your bed's appearance is also a good time to consider finding some new accessories for your bed! It should go without saying that a dainty print or lacy sheet will probably not be the most fitting for your otherwise stately bed. These types of prints tend to make the bed and the room itself feel more crowded and cluttered. When it comes to a super kingsize headboard, simplicity is key. Deep, saturated colors and large prints will work. Stick to browns, gold tones, navy blues, or dark forest greens when selecting sheets. If you want to add a bit of a daintier, feminine touch, you may want to consider a floor sham with a slight ruffle.
After reading this, you may be wondering if a super kingsize headboard would be right for your bed. The good news is that a headboard like this can look fantastic with beds made from a variety of woods: oak, birch, pine, and walnut are only a couple of the choices. Leather beds also definitely work well with a super kingsize headboard.
