Did you spent the holidays wishing that bare mattress and box spring in your spare room had looked a bit more guest-friendly?

You're the target consumer for the BackDrop. The inflatable air cushion and upholstered slipcover attaches to the wall behind a bed to create an instant headboard. Sold as a set — slipcover, cushion, electric pump and adhesive tabs — the product is sized for twin to king beds, $79.99 to $129.

The cushions and covers come in several shapes and fabrics, including microsuede, faux leather, brushed twill and matelassé , such as the ivory cotton-poly blend pictured.

One caveat: The adhesive tabs are not recommended for use on papered walls. Available at Bed Bath & Beyond stores, www.target.com and www.backdrophead
boards.com .
