How do I create a subhead in a numbers table
Could you explain what you mean by "subhead"?
A Numbers table can have up to 5 Header Rows and 5 Header Columns.
General information about tables in Numbers can be found here:

If what you posted in your screenshot is what you are talking about, it appears you have already created what you wanted. I assume it is not, though.
SGIII's screenshot shows the "spreadsheet" way to do it. You can then turn on Categories, with a category for column B.
Original table:
Categorized on "room":
Hide column B:
You can collapse/expand each room, or all rooms at once, by clicking the disclosure triangles. Option click on one will affect them all.
You can also do sub-categories if you have some other columns to categorize by
And you can drag the categories to re-order them
"Item" is my header; "living room" is my subhead (along with names of other rooms that will be subheads). What would have been a clearer way for me to have said that so that it would have been understandable the first time?
Not sure what to call that. It seems like something you would more commonly see in a word processing document (say a document in Pages) than in spreadsheets. Perhaps Pages is more suited to what you are trying to do?
In a Numbers table you would more typically see things in tabular format, something like this:
A tabular format allows you to easily summarize data in various ways.
If you are new to Numbers I highly recommend having a look at the templates at File > New in your menu and at the User Guide at Help > Numbers Help in your menu.
