Bolstered Styles      
Empress Style

The Empress style is reminiscent of a strong European influence. The sloping crown and swept back corners fit in with the most sophisticated decor yet easily complements any traditional furniture and design. The elegant design accommodates most types of lighter weight fabric and can be coordinated with a matching bolster covering or contrasted with a complementary solid colored fabric, as strikingly shown above.

Our unique "easy stapling strip™" makes covering your headboard a simple afternoon project. Your kit comes complete with detailed instructions, hardware to assemble and coverable legs*.

Fabric requirements are based on 54" fabric with a pattern repeat of up to 27 inches. King sizes require seaming of the center cushion if the fabric is not railroaded. If you are using a light weight, light colored fabric, we recommend covering the center cushion (and bolster, if covering smooth instead of shirred) with a lining first.
