Cane headboard

Your bedroom could be quickly brought up to date with a new headboard. They are easily picked up at second-hand shops and auctions; why not see what you can find or give your current one a revamp? Test out a range of Matt or Satin finishes or even try something metallic - there's sure to be a Plasti-kote shade to suit your scheme. Then look out for cushions in bold patterns and textured fabrics to complete the look.
