wood or upholster

I've got headboards on my mind. My bedroom feels incomplete right now. I need a headboard for the space. Right now our bed is under the window with unfortunate looking drapery. Such a sad sight. I either need to a) get new drapery or b) invest in a headboard. Here are some that I'm currently enjoying. What's your bed situation? Headboard? wood, upholstered......do tell.

I also like to note that I love Pinterest but it is the most aggravating thing when the image you pinned from someone else doesn't lead to the correct or original source. ugh.

Obsessing

This girl wants an upholstered headboard...I mean I really really want. I just love the extra layer they add in the bedroom. I also love any opportunity to use fabulous fabric. I am currently digging the shape of Michelle Adam's yellow floral headboard. I would love to upholster my future headboard in a masculine, graphic pattern cut in an intricate, feminine shape. Thoughts? Do you love upholstered headboards? Is it worth a DIY or should I invest in a well made one?
