Ties

Why not just sew some rings on the back of the sham that will fit over the knobs of your choice? You could sew them a little way down the back of the sham so they don't show from the front when it's on the bed. You could use brass or maybe plastic rings like those that hold up shower curtains. Bit hard withoiut pictures I guess.

I just saw something like this on tv, but it was with chair cushions. They used a black, decorative curtain rod and tied the cushions to the rod. It looked great!

I actually had thought of that but I am worried that if the person wants to lean back on the cushions and read etc they will get stabbed by the hangers/knobs if they are not up hgihg enough. I like your idea of using rings though. maybe use rings to attach the ties to the cushions for a better hold.

That is a great idea TY!!

I saw that too, I think it was Small Space, Big Style. I loved the idea!

I could be wrong about which show it was on, there are probably 20 decorating/renovating shows that I watch and I get them mixed up alot.

(unless its with colin and justin... Just LOVE them! DH doesn't understand...)

- back on google groups again, the server I was using doesn't like me anymore, thanks anyways Angie, it was great while it lasted!

I hope you can come up with a good idea because I have a bed without a headboard and would like to do something similar. I stayed in a motel a few years ago where the headboard was screwed to the wall instead of the bed.

Anyway, I was wondering if a curtain rod could be used but it would have to be attached to the wall using those plastic anchors so it wouldn't pull out easily. I read in bed, leaning on pillows piled up behind me, and I am sure there would be some strain on the pillows caused by moving around. If the rod was just high enough to clear the top of the pillows it might not hurt your back if the pillows were thick enough.

Please let me know if you come up with anything.

I am thinking of sew on rings, then some type of wide ribbon, then using the wooden peg hangers like this; (but a new one or 2)
