What can I do about the space between my wall and my bed?

case head board or push your bed closer to the wall. I am guess you already have a head board

I'm assuming you mean the long edge of the bed?

If the problem is that your mattress isn't as wide as the frame, you could make or buy bolster pillows to fill the gap.

If the problem is that, for whatever reason, the bed frame cannot be set close enough to the wall, you might build a "sofa table", the length of the mattress, with a shelf on top and a plywood front. Make it the same height as your headboard/footboard, or at least a foot higher than the mattress. Paint or stain.

put a 10 or 12" board....as long as your matress...... under the matress (not the box springs)on the side in question.....the board will hit the wall and things will only fall a short distance to the board.

I bought my sister some wedge- shaped pillows from LTD Catalog, because her little dogs could get stuck between the mattress and the head and footboards. They fit perfectly in the gap. You can find Ltd online, too.

Hi Mondo, hope this helps you out. Got to the dollar store and pick up some pool noodles, cut to the proper width and add them into the space.

Why not just push the bed against the wall or move it further away fromt he wall either choice will give you a new perspective.

I like the idea of a board the length of the mattress, under the mattress pushed up against the wall, things will fall but only to the depth of the mattress.

Is your bed frame on correctly? The metal ones have edges that push right up against the wall. If it is backwards, the mattress will move away from the wall and slip towards the footing.
