Bed Canopies, Headboards And Bed Valances
Made For More Than A Good Night's Sleep
A bedroom feels most considered when the individual pieces have been designed to belong together.

From a tailored bed valance to a statement canopy or upholstered headboard, Chatelaine Interiors can create bespoke bedroom treatments around the dimensions of your bed, the proportions of the room and the wider interior scheme.
Made Around Your Bed, Not A Standard Size
Beds, divans and bedroom layouts vary considerably.
A made-to-measure treatment allows the finished proportions to be considered properly rather than relying on a generic size and hoping it sits correctly.
We can create bespoke bed valances and canopies based on the particular bed and room, with fabrics and finishing details selected to suit the overall scheme.
From A Simple Valance To A Statement Canopy
Not every bedroom needs the same treatment.
For one project, the right answer may be a clean, tailored valance that quietly completes the bed. For another, it may be a softer gathered treatment or a more architectural canopy that becomes a defining feature of the room.
We can help you explore the proportions, fabric and detailing required to achieve the look while making sure the design can be realised practically.
Bespoke Canopies & Bed Testers
More unusual bedroom treatments are exactly where bespoke design comes into its own.
A canopy or bed tester involves far more than choosing a fabric. Scale, structure, fixing, drape and the relationship with the rest of the room all need to be considered.
If you have a reference image, design concept or idea that you aren't sure how to execute, bring it to us.
We'll work through how it can be translated into a finished piece.
Complete The Bedroom Scheme
Your bed treatment doesn't have to be designed in isolation.
We can coordinate it with:
- Curtains
- Blinds
- Cushions and throws
- Upholstered headboards
- Lampshades
- Other soft furnishings within the room
That gives you the opportunity to repeat fabrics and detailing deliberately, or introduce contrast while keeping the overall scheme balanced.
For upholstered headboards, we can work across both the upholstery and wider bedroom design so the individual elements feel connected.
Bring The Headboard Into The Wider Scheme
An upholstered headboard can be treated as part of the wider bedroom scheme rather than as a separate furniture decision.
We can help coordinate the fabric, proportions and detailing with bed valances, canopies, curtains, cushions and other soft furnishings so the different elements feel deliberately connected. If you're still shaping the idea, we can also help you visualise how the headboard could sit within the wider room, exploring how its scale, shape, fabric and finishing details might work alongside the other elements of the scheme.
Where appropriate, the upholstery and bedroom treatments can therefore be considered together from the outset.
Fabric And Design Support
Some clients come to us with a complete bedroom specification from an interior designer.
Others have an image they love and need help deciding what fabric, colour and proportions will make it work in their own room.
We're comfortable with both.
Our role can be highly collaborative and design-led or focused more closely on technical delivery, depending on what you need.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you make a bed valance for any bed size?
Yes. Our valances are made to measure, so we can create them around the individual bed, including larger sizes such as Emperor beds. We'll measure and assess the bed before confirming the specification, rather than relying on standard dimensions.
Can you help me choose the fabric?
Yes. We can help source and select fabric or work with a material you or your interior designer have already chosen.
Can the fabric coordinate with my curtains or headboard?
Yes. Considering the bedroom as a complete scheme is an important part of our approach.
Do you make bespoke bed canopies?
Yes. Every bed canopy we create is made bespoke in our workshop, designed around the specific bed, room and overall concept. We can develop the proportions, fabric and finishing details with you before it is made.
Do you install bed canopies?
Installation requirements form part of the design process. We'll consider how the treatment needs to be fitted before manufacture begins.
Can you work from an interior designer's specification?
Yes. We regularly work in partnership with interior designers and can manufacture to an agreed design while providing technical advice where required.
