The most essential piece of furniture in your bedroom is your bed. Because it serves as the focal point for decorating, its headboard must make a statement. When you love the style of a craftsman style headboard, it highlights the look of your room and helps bring its look together. The headboard is a crucial design element that's also a significant investment. Therefore, it's worth the time looking at the various features, materials, and elements that go into the buying decision. With that in mind, we've put together this guide to help inspire you.

What Sets a Craftsman Style Headboard Apart?

These headboards feature construction from the highest quality hardwoods. Under most circumstances, these hardwoods include oak, maple, cherry, and teak. Their designs bring rustic and farmhouse charm to the bedroom with their simple structures and subtle features. Because these headboards also feature traditional styles with clean lines, they work in multiple room styles ranging from transitional to contemporary.

Transitional style refers to when furniture and interior elements blend modern or contemporary and traditional styles, part-way between chrome and class and classical styles. So, if you’re adding a craftsman style headboard to a room featuring glass and chrome elements, select one with a minimalist design. That way, the other accents in the room can blend with the details of the headboard.

Craftsman style headboards typically feature their original wood grain finish. Under some circumstances, you’ll find them with a painted finish, but it’s uncommon. Lighter wood grain is popular, but darker tones do present themselves in some designs.

How to Decorate with a Craftsman Style Headboard

Craftsman refers to the Arts and Crafts movement and furniture styles replicating when construction occurred in Gustav Stickley's Craftsman Workshops. Therefore, it’s possible to find these headboards in a variety of styles including these examples:

Barnwood mission: these headboards feature chunky pieces of wood with equal spacing to create a solid and traditional appearance.
Mixing panels: slightly wide panels mixing with vertical slats held together with a gently concaving top rail create a chic traditional headboard.
Solid wood: when you would rather not have any details except for the statement of the grain in the wood, and its rich finish, this is the optimal solution.

Just as there are many options for other pieces of furniture in your bedroom, the same is true for a craftsman style headboard. While the title sounds straightforward and limiting, this is not the case.

How to Care for a Wooden Headboard?

Caring for a wooden headboard requires frequent dusting with a dry microfiber cloth that’s lint free. Doing so will prevent grime from building up. If you notice dirt building up, spot clean it with a microfiber cloth that’s been dipped in a warm water solution mixed with a mild detergent. For deeper cleaning, which should occur once every six to twelve months, the recommendation is to use a professional wood cleaner. You’ll find this is especially true if you’re cleaning hardwood. Work the cloth in the same direction as the grain to prevent dirt from ruining the finish.
