Pick the furniture and a print size to see it to scale on your wall.

Print
16 × 20 in, filling the paper (trims 2.7 % of the picture)
Center
65¼ in (166 cm) from the floor
Above the headboard
8 in (20 cm) from the headboard to the frame
Ideal width
40 to 45 in over a 60 in headboard
Why this height
Centered at eye level, this frame would not sit 6 to 10 in above the headboard, so the 8 in gap sets the height.
