After navigating our way through Steps 1 & 2, in Part 1 of this post, you now have a basic idea of the direction you are wanting to go, and have determined whether you are wanting a Headboard Only or the complete Headboard and Bed Frame. As well, you should know whether you are wanting a Panel or Wingback headboard.
With that, we are quickly on our way to finding your custom design and the details that will make this piece so special for you.

STEP #3.
Choose:
THE SHAPE OF YOUR HEADBOARD:
Rectangular, Simple, Advanced, Expert or Custom Shaping
RECTANGULAR SHAPING
Rectangular shaping minimizes shaping, and offers clean Lines. A simple, rather basic headboard and bed frame design can give your room a very neutral palette to work with. Changing the style of linens, throw pillows or the surrounding decor is never an issue when you have a piece that is neutral, yet can still make a bold statement. This option can keep
the design space very quiet and peaceful, but you can also spice it up with the environment around if you
wish.
SIMPLE SHAPING
Gentle arched top or otherwise, simple shaping will enhance the design of the headboard and start to give your space a personality of it's own. You can also add shaping to the bed frame for additional character.
This is a great classic way to add style to your bed and set a tone for the room.
ADVANCED SHAPING
An additional level of skill and effort is required for some of our more popular styles. But the smaller amounts of additional attention to detail go a long way in the finished product. We are able to customize any of our designs to fit within your needs.

STEP #4.
Choose:
THE HEIGHT OF YOUR HEADBOARD:
Low Profile, Average, Above Average, Tall, or Oversized
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tip: A great way to determine your desired height of headboard is to use blue or green painter's tape and apply it to the wall above your mattress at different heights you might like. You will need to envision your headboard at this point, and it's good to give yourself at least 24 hours with the tape in place at your pre-determined height. This way you can better envision how it will look to you at different times of day.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
STANDARD HEIGHTS:
Low Profile: 36-48"T
Average: 48- 60"T
Above Average: 60-72"T
Tall: 72- 80"T
Oversize: 81"-120"
Note: Headboards can be made to ANY height or size. However, oversized headboards generally have to be made to assemble on site for ease of transport and delivery.
