Replace Your Dated Headboard With This Comfy Pillow Idea

A headboard is there to be a multipurpose barrier between the bed and the wall. It supports the body if you need to sit up in bed and also supports the pillows, keeping them on the bed. Not all headboards are created equal, however, and some are lacking in the comfort department because they are too hard and rigid to actually support the back and head. Some also lack style and don't fit into modern bedroom designs. The Rucener Thickened Wedge Pillow Headboard is a refreshing solution. It is stylish and serves as a pillow more than a board. Sold on Amazon, it costs around $60 to $100 based on the size of your bed.

Headboards aren't exactly necessary for the bedroom so people may choose to leave them out especially because of costs and space but by going for a pillow-headboard-hybrid like this, you're able to get all the perks without these downsides. This product is basically a reading pillow so it is very versatile. You can move it around the house, like to the nursery or the living room couch, and if you have a DIY headboard like a wood pallet or bookcase, this can be the cushion it needs to accompany it. 

The Rucener Thickened Wedge Pillow Headboard

This ergonomic wedge headboard pillow is specially designed to give users a comfortable experience when sitting up in bed. Whether you want to read, eat, or do something else, it will give you the support you need for as long as you're seated. The Rucener headboard pillow is covered with a soft velvet material and comes in many colors. To style this in your room, choose a color that matches or complements the other elements in your bedroom like the bedding, wall color, armchair, dresser, and the headboard if you have one already.

Velvet is an especially rich material so you also have to be intentional with the other materials you use alongside it. You can keep it simple and choose a bold color for the pillow and cotton bedding in a light, neutral hue so the velvet can stand out. To add more texture, you can choose a knit or linen blanket and then style the foot of your bed with a velvet ottoman or bench. Overall, this product seems great to replace or cover up your dated headboard. It has overwhelmingly positive reviews on the Amazon product page with customers raving about the comfort, quality, look, and how well it fits with their bed.
