I'd say draw the fireplace or whatever you want to cover to scale. Make a similar drawing for the headboard and cut it out, lay it over the fireplace, and shift it around. This might help you decide if something needs to be cut off or added. You could even try coloring your drawings if you want to decide on paint or stain.
