A beautiful collaboration – The NEW Puffin Flexi-Bed.

At Last!  Someone’s designed it … A chic, flexible and uniquely practical be to delight children, grown ups and interior designers alike.
 
The NEW Flexi-Bed solves a myriad of parenting needs – from a great nights’ sleep for their children to a pull out bed for the occasional sleepover guest or a convenient pull out tray to house building blocks. jigsaws and play sets without the bedtime tears of ‘tidy up time’ … in beautiful Liberty prints from Coco & Wolf.  Your new Liberty upholstered Flexi-Bed is much coveted as an elegant adult day bed too! 
 
The configurations for the Flexi-Bed are numerous and you can order it your way,  covered in your favourite fabric with the added versatility to customise not only the fabric, height and shape but the under bed storage area to suit your needs.

 

The Flexi-Bed features either a space underneath for your own storage solutions (baskets, suitcases and the like) or the option to add a full length upholstered drawer for storage.  The strong drawer on wheels can even be filled with a guest mattress for a quick sleepover fix with friends.

And as if this bed wasn’t clever enough; the pull out ‘play tray’ option is ideal for crafts and activities and is simply pushed under the bed at bedtime, putting it out of sight and out of mind until morning when paired with the drop over valance.

What’s more, you can send us any Coco & Wolf Liberty print fabric to cover your Flexi-Bed in by kind arrangement with Coco & Wolf’s creator, Amy.

Step 4 - We Start Making

We will confirm with you that your fabric has arrived and we will get making!

Ordering your perfect headboard or bed in one of Coco & Wolf’s Liberty fabrics is simple.

First choose your bed size and navigate to the product that you would like to buy in the size you need.

Use our website to choose your desired options for your headboard and select ‘Customer’s Own Material’ from the list of fabrics available.

Checkout and pay for your headboard/bed and note down your unique six digit order number.  You will need to include this number on your parcel when you send in your material to us.

ALWAYS ensure your order is placed with The Headboard Workshop before you send us your material.

Use the next tab to understand how to calculate how much fabric you will need to supply.  Give us a call on 01291 628216 if you get stuck.

 

 

How much material should I send for my new headboard?

Every size and style of headboard requires a different quantity of material.

We include a model specific fabric requirement on each and every headboard and bed on our website for easy reference.

To find the amount you’ll need, first navigate to the size and style of headboard you’d like to purchase.

You’ll find on that page a banner that looks like this near to the images of the product:

If you click on the + sign of the blue bar entitled Customer’s Own Material, it will open out to give the information for that model, like so:

The text that is visible when you do this will also ask for extra material if:

  • You have a directional fabric (patterned) –  we will need one or more extra ‘pattern repeats’ depending on the model.
  • You wish to have a pillowstop – extra material is needed for this.
  • You wish to supply a different colour material for contrast piping (on piped models only)

So, what do all these things mean?

What is a pattern repeat?

When material is printed, it is printed with a pattern repeat along the length of the roll.  The vertical pattern repeat relates to the distance between where the pattern starts, ends and appears again.

If your chosen material has a pattern repeat of 4 cm, for example, and we ask for 1 extra pattern repeat, we would need an extra 4 cm to be able to join the patterns correctly.

Similarly, if your pattern repeat is 68 cm and 1 extra pattern repeat is needed, we would need an extra 68 cm.

On a bed, we may need up to 5 pattern repeats and therefore, a fabric with a large pattern repeat can work out to be an expensive and wasteful choice.

What is a ‘directional pattern’?

A directional pattern has a clear top and a bottom to it.  A good example of this is a tree pattern – you would normally always want for the tree to be upright on your headboard.  If we were to use the fabric on its side to avoid joins/seams then your trees would be sideways – hardly ideal!

A good example of a non directional pattern may be a dot or spot that has no clear top or bottom and so the fabric could easily be run sideways to avoid joins.

Extra care should be taken when considering stripes.  A striped pattern could be run directionally OR from side to side and you’ll be asked to confirm which way you intend stripe to run.

We will contact you when we receive your material at our workshop to confirm your pattern direction for fabrics which could be run both ways to ask your preference.

My headboard will be wider than my material – how will that work?

If you would prefer to see NO joins on the front of your headboard, please ask Charlotte Gaisford to ‘Railroad’ your fabric.

This means the print is printed sideways and can therefore be used on a headboard or bed without any front facing joins.

Can I have a patterned fabric but run it on it’s side?

You can decide which way you want your pattern to run.

Some patterns do not have a definitive top or bottom to them, so, the choice is yours alone.

We do not recommend using a pattern that has a very definite top and bottom in the wrong orientation.

Where/how should I send my material to you?

Before you send us your material, please help us by putting your order on.  This is important because it generates a unique six digit code for your order which we use as an identifier.  We ask that this number accompanies your material to our workshop either on the material itself (post it note or sticky label) or on the outside of your package.

It helps us enormously if you can also:

  • Attach your name.
  • Attach your order reference number, which you will receive via email after placing your order.
  • Indicate the correct side of the fabric.

And finally, the address you need to send your fabric to is;

The Headboard Workshop Ltd,

Units 10-11 St David’s Industrial Estate,

Pengam,

Blackwood,

NP12 3SW.

Will you confirm you have received my fabric?

Yes, we will.  We will also return any usable left over material to you with your headboard delivery if there is any.

Can Coco & Wolf send my material to you directly on my behalf?

Yes.  This is fine and happens all the time.  Please ask Coco & Wolf to label the material package with your surname and order number as above.  All of Coco & Wolf’s fabrics will require an FR interliner for use on a headboard or bed, ottoman or chair (Valances and scatter cushions are exempt).

What do I need to tell you about my material?

If you wish to chat with us about the suitability of your material or have any queries about the quantity needed, we may ask you the following in order to help you:

  • The size and model of headboard that you are considering
  • The pattern name and colourway of the material
  • The material composition (for fire retardancy purposes)
  • The material width
  • The vertical pattern repeat (of patterned)

Better still, if you can provide us with a website link to your chosen fabric, we are very happy to have a look.  We can then tell you exactly how much you will need to send us.

In order to make your fabric comply with fire regulations, all Coco & Wolf Fabrics will require a fire retardant interliner.

Interliners are charged at the following prices, depending on size.
