[ bed shopping ]

SO YESTERDAY I showed you some gorgeous inspirational beds. It was pretty tough to narrow down our favourite so it has come down to what we could find around Dubai. We searched all around the city and these were the 3 on the short-list. As you can see, we have made our choice...

option 1

option 2

option 3


Yup, option 3 was the winner. I love the button tufting and the shape of the "wings" on the sides. It's been done in a gorgeous belgian linen and while it's a little darker than I had originally been looking for, I think it will look pretty with white linens and a few hits of pale pink. Which one would you have chosen?

    Love your choice!! It's gorgeous! I like number one too, but number three is uber pretty! I've been thinking of getting a tufted headboard, but I'm so worried that my husband will get it dirty! :)

    All very nice. I would have gone for #1 if my husband was involved but #3 if it was just me :)

    I liked 2 and 3. Couldn;t decide. Love your choice. I have a linen tufted headboard and love it. I read in bad and there is nothing more comfy. Also white and pink look great with it. Nice choice.!

    Hands down #3. It has more presence and I love the color!

    Number 3 for sure....I love button tufting (just bought 2 chairs with the same detail). I also really like the colour........it would look great with the white linens and some pops of pink, or any other colour.

    Thanks for following along with my blog.

    Hi Lisa, all the headboards are lovely, but the 3rd is so sumptuous and luxurious and such a pretty colour. I can't wait to see the complete ensemble now! Thanks for your lovely comments. We did manage to get 2 days of lovely sunshine, so mustn't grumble! Hope you get a little of that cooling rain you hoped for. Love Linda x

    I would have chosen no. 3 as well! It's got that added uniqueness which the other ones don't. So gorgeous!

    Love your choice! I think it's the perfect mix between masculine (the darker colour) and feminine (the lovely curves). Will definitely look amazing with white and a bit of light pink - good eye!

    I can hardly wait to see the white linens and the touch of green...That headboard evokes serenity in luxury

    Perfect! I was
    attracted to #1,
    but I think #3 will
    stay cleaner and is
    a great contrast for
    lighter bedding.
    Can't wait to see it
    installed in your home!

    They are all fantastic...number 1 is very much like the one in my bedroom that we made. :-)

    I love the "wing" detail on the one you chose...very lovely!

    #3 is the best--especially combined with pink. It's going to be fabulous. The others are beautiful in their own way, but #3 makes the biggest statement.

    Thank you so much for visiting my blog today!
