It's true, trying to match any furnishings to a black leather headboard can be rather trying since a black leather headboard does command a lot of attention and will probably be the focal point of the room. With a bit of planning, however, you can keep your black leather headboard "in check" and balanced with the other furniture in your room.
Before you continue to search for a headboard, you must measure your bedroom to be sure that the size of the headboard you are looking for is appropriate. DO NOT GUESS - nothing is more disappointing than purchasing a gorgeous piece of furniture, only to bring it home and then realize it does not actually fit. Keep any crowding issues in mind, and review how much room there is between the current furniture in the room. You certainly want to be able to navigate easily around the room!

You will also want to measure the mid-way point of the wall you plan to place your headboard against. A headboard should not extend past the half way point of any wall in the room; otherwise, it will be overbearing (especially a large black leather headboard!).
Now, when planning the design of a room with a leather headboard, one of the main concerns for any person is what COLORS to use with it. The great thing about black is that it generally goes with any color under the rainbow.
CAUTION: Never match brown leather with existing leather in a room. It will make your bedroom appear gaudy rather than gorgeous! Greens often appear tacky against black also. Be sure to get a swatch of cloth for any colors to compare them against the black leather.
Colors that do go well with black leather are red, white, purple, yellow, and grey.
If there is furniture in the room that will not match your headboard, you can either re-upholster it or perhaps move it into a different room. It's a great excuse to do a bit more shopping!
To further complicate things, you will also have to consider what shape you would like your headboard to be. If your room has a lot of round or soft edges already, it may be a good idea to continue that motif with the headboard. In contrast, if your room has a lot of angular furniture, a rectangular shape will certainly compliment the rest of the furnishings. You can also find many black leather headboards in oblong shapes and nice round frames.
Next time you are shopping around for your leather headboard, don't feel intimidated! Take these things into consideration and you will be sure to find a black leather headboard that will compliment your bedroom nicely.
