This Year’s Hottest Colors & Fabrics

A good custom headboard functions much the same as a good piece of Danish furniture or marble flooring—it future-proofs your décor and always looks good. Trends come and go, but you don’t want to be replacing your headboard every few years (of course, Edward’s Headboards is always happy to oblige).
The good news with this year’s hottest colors and fabrics is that they are earth tones or classic colors, meaning you don’t have to worry about them going out of style in the foreseeable future.
Much can be said about how the pandemic changed consumers, but the one take-away we have as manufacturers of custom furniture is that if consumers are going to spend a lot of time inside—they want their space to look fresh. Traditionally with headboards, neutral tones were most popular—the idea being that you’d go for a timeless look for the headboard, and can introduce colour with your comforter and your décor.
Here are 2023’s hottest color trends
Warm Neutrals: The timeless appeal of neutrals hasn’t slowed down in 2023. Soft shades of beige, taupe, and gray provide a serene backdrop for any interior (and especially your bed). These versatile colors match with literally anything, and create a sense of calm and balance, allowing other design elements to take center stage. Pair your neutral headboard (or other furniture) with textured fabrics to add a natural but refined style to your space.
Greens: This color is EVERYWHERE these days. From soft greens like sage for interior accent walls to metallic green vehicles. Green has emerged as one of the most prominent colors of the year. Whether its shades like emerald or earthy moss, green thrives because it brings a touch of nature indoors. Once just limited to houseplants, you can now Incorporate this rejuvenating color through accent walls, furniture pieces and yes, headboards. Green not only adds vibrancy but also promotes a sense of tranquility and harmony within your living environment.
Deep Blues: Blue remains a classic color choice in 2023 for interior design, but this year we’ve seen a shift toward deeper and more expressive shades. Navy and Imperial blues can be used to create a luxurious and sophisticated atmosphere. Soft blues in linens also provide a nice contrast against light colored walls and add dimension to your décor. Want to reinvigorate your space? Use blue upholstery fabrics, art or statement wallpapers for an eye-catching but refined look.
And here are 2023’s hottest (but not to the touch) fabrics:
Velvet: When it comes to fabrics, velvet remains the undisputed king of luxury and comfort. Velvet’s popularity isn’t hard to believe—it looks as comfortable as it feels, and its become a must-have fabric for upholstery, curtains, and headboards. Its smooth and shiny texture adds a gentle sophistication to any space, creating an inviting ambiance. Opt for a sage green or deep blue to really make your furniture pop.
Linen: As earth tones gain popularity in the world of design, organic materials like linen are in high demand. Linen works so well with earth tones because it offers a natural and relaxed aesthetic, creating a laid-back atmosphere for your décor without looking cheap. Incorporate linen into your headboard design to give your sleep space an air of authenticity and comfort.
As you can see, the top trends of 2023 bring back many traditional and bold colors and fabrics for you to personalize your home with style. Whether you prefer warm neutrals, greens, or deep blues, you know what you purchase now will look good forever—especially if they’re in plush velvets, or earthy linens.
