So you've clicked on an article about the internet's best headboards. That can only mean one thing: You're officially in the thick of adulthood. It happens in the blink of an eye.

The options are aplenty. From storage-savvy shelving to luxe palm materials, under-$100 price tags to cozy velvet upholsteries — the following headboards flaunt a wide range of unique features.
