Add Flair With Nailhead Trim

Nail Head Headboard Dallas Tx

Nailhead trim is becoming increasingly popular and for good reason. Not only are nailheads a clever way to give added definition to the lines and frames of your home furnishings, but they add personality to the pieces as well.

Additionally, nailheads are no longer singled out for leather fabrics. Today, this trim can compliment an array of fabrics, leaving the possibilities for incorporating it into your design, endless.

The color of the nailheads can also play an important part in how you want your pieces to appear. For example, silver-colored heads can soften a piece, by making it appear more feminine, while brass-colored heads give it a masculine edge.

Generally, nailheads are used to enhance the legs and arms of furniture, but they can be used exclusively along the base for minimal flair as well. With that said, nailheads can be used for more than just sofas and chairs. There are many areas around the house that can benefit from nailhead trim, but for now, here are five places that may not have crossed your mind.

 

Highlight your headboard. An upholstered headboard already adds so much to a bedroom, but adding naihead trim can make it really stand out as the focal point.

Get creative with coffee tables. Nailhead trim can make a bland coffee table a little more interesting. If you already have a great piece with a unique shape, adding nailheads will really accentuate it.

Define your dining area seating. Adding trim to upholstered dining room chairs can really dress up your eating area. The trim can compliment just about any type of fabric, but will really enhance the look of two-tone colors.

Add character to cabinetry. If you have a piece of cabinetry or a chest of drawers sitting around that could use a facelift, this is a great way to do it. Don’t be afraid to branch out, creating a design on the front, rather than just sticking to the edges.

Make your drapery dazzle. Nailheads can give an extra punch to your window treatments. Try adding them to the top of a straight valance or even to the bottom of long curtains. Make sure to consider your current or future drapery hardware when choosing the color.

 

If you are looking for a truly updated look, you will want to select a new fabric and reupholster any furniture with fabric while you are at it: Headboards, Chairs, etc! You can even try adding quilt batting and wrapping a luxurious fabric around a piece of furniture that you plan to add nail trim on that previously was only wooden, such as a headboard to create a totally new look for a minimal price.

Adding nailhead trim is not for amatures. Each nail needs to be hammered individually and perfectly spaced, so choosing a professional to do the work might be the best choice. However, if you’re an avid do-it-yourselfer you might be up for the challenge. Either way, nailhead trim will give your home that added flair it deserves.

We look forward to you stopping in at Cutting Corners Dallas to choose fabric for your new nailhead trim project!
