Mel Upholstered Cushion Headboard

Meet Mel — our very first and best-selling padded headboard. Designed for both comfort and style, this upholstered cushion headboard adds rich texture and visual impact to any bedroom. Its space-saving design makes it ideal even for smaller rooms, and it can be customised in any suitable upholstery fabric to match your decor.

Fabric Options

• Please note: your Mel headboard is sold without fabric. You're welcome to supply your own—just email us at hello@thehouseupstairs.co.uk and we’ll share our address.
• Or, if you’d like a little help from our design team, we offer a fabric sourcing service for £55. We’ll send you unlimited suggestions, plus swatches delivered straight to your door to help you find the perfect match.
• To estimate fabric cost, simply multiply the required meterage by the fabric’s retail price per meter.
