Wallpaper A Bed Frame

080508_wallpaperbedframe.jpgWe spotted this photo by Sam Moiler, and thought this idea was pretty neat: If you have a blah bed frame (like Ikea's Malm for example) and want to style it up, why not wallpaper the head and foot boards? It adds pattern to a room in smaller doses than papering up a wall, and is playfully unexpected.

brilliant... though I guess you would have to coat it with some sort of protective coating? (You can see I have no DIY skills)

I love it!

Jenzoe, I'm pretty much absent on the DIY front as well, but most wallpaper is coated. If it's not, I don't think it would be hard to either brush or spray on some polyurethane.

I'm curious if anyone knows where the Owl pillow comes from? The rendering is so perfectly "storybook illustration."
