Headboard lovely - price not too horrendous IMO

Wall hanging - not my cup of tea & wouldn't pay that much. I have a feeling I would get bored of it before too long & it is a bit dominating.
You could do your own - piece of canvas & pen on a string !

Thanks

we have that headboard and i would say - 'don't get it'. had it since may and alraedy there is a 'grease mark' where dh's head must touch it and tbh he isn't particularly greasy.

aq do you have that specific headboard? are all headboards make of fake leather that easy to stain? or do you think its just that particular one?

i wouldn't have thought that leather would stain that easily... suede/nubuck maybe...

even so... i just would imagine it has quite a thickish, shiny-ish, wipe clean-ish surface!
whereas nubuck or suede would soak up sweat/grease and stain...
