Add as a pretty accent, or make it the star of the show with a piece of shapely furniture. Good Homes magazine picks out 9 of the best scallop-shape decor ideas…<\/p>\n

A scalloped bedhead in dusky pink velvet gives off Miami Beach Art deco vibes.

Last year, Aldi launched a scallop bed from just \u00a3250<\/a>, and Oliver Bonas sells a velvet, scallop-shaped headboard<\/a> in a number of colours from \u00a3545.<\/p>\n
