Recovering headboard and installing wallpaper in our Grand Design Reflections 337

this dark headboard um i want to try to to cover it so i'm gonna see how hard this is to get off i'm bill i'm kelly and this is our this is our adventures here we go oh that was way easier than what i thought i'm gonna put these up somewhere and then this one i'm gonna go get my stapler so i can staple this on this is gonna be way easier than i thought oh gosh i shouldn't have said that it's probably gonna turn into a nightmare before i put this back up i'm gonna put up the peel and stick wallpaper from walmart i just think it'd be so pretty and i think now originally i was gonna run it this way but now because i'm running these straps this way and i don't want all the straps going the same way i'm just gonna run it up and down so let me at least i have a soft place to sit and putting this on the sides too i think that would be pretty to have that all the way around more stuff oh it's square means i gotta go back in the house to get another bit i think i found the right one if not i brought my whole case two screws that's off now i'm almost thinking about covering those while they're off not i'm not gonna do that today i'm supposed to be camping or packing our camper to go out of town instead i decided to do a project i'm expecting this to take me about an hour so i think it's worth it because this went all the way to the sides up here i can just do little pieces and then i'll have plenty to do the sides i'm gonna go find me a utility knife i didn't cut it straight move it up just a touch that way i can just take the razor knife and straighten that we're gonna keep this layer here because this is where i'm going to keep my squareness wrong i've never done this so don't think that i'm a professional i've hung wallpaper in my mind i'm going to take my knife and cut this bigger than what i want in the window that way it's not like i can press and get it exactly where i want it and i probably should have waited and done that after i did the bottom note to self don't cut this until after you get this down here where you need it to be i should never have cut that cut this bigger so that way adjust it as we go here that's hard i'm trying to cut it just a touch bigger than what i need up here i mean like that's fixing to be but i do want to mark where these screw holes are already i just want to keep marking them as i do also that way i know trying to get all the bubbles out of it i'm going to cut the next piece and we're going to turn it as around the corner i'm going to keep this stuff like that piece i really don't hate because all i need is just a little piece up here but either what you're waiting on wasting a whole sheet so cut it and make it work the hardest part is doing it around these windows if i didn't have these windows they would just go and really the only place that i've messed up is right here and that balance is going to be a problem so i think what i'm going to do just because of this piece here too i think i'm just going to cut it to what size i need it to be and then i'll just take this piece off and start it on the corner just kind of have to keep working with it another thing too i'm leaving this piece of wood because you're not really going to be able to see it because the headboard's going to kind of be up against it i'm hoping so i'm going to take my next pieces that i do i'm going to wrap that just a little bit there but then just keep four of them and i'm just going to come all the same size that way at least i know it's behind this but at least they're pretty close they're the same and another good thing that i left this one up so i can go back and see how this came and what goes where because you got we'll put these up first see the piece that i saved and cut from over there is going to fit perfect there barely enough that took me about 30 minutes i um one roll seriously probably wouldn't have been enough like literally i had to piece like one piece down here wish i had pieced it on that side should have started on this side but it's okay you can kind of see that it's pieced but i'm not following the holy rule for one spot now let's get this thing covered and back on the wall and we will be done i'm gonna go ahead and cut this off so i can go ahead and cut my excess off so i'm gonna go ahead and fold that over i'm gonna do the sides last because we want the top to bottom to be tight and then i want to try to make sure because we're doing stripes i'm gonna keep i've got like this right here i'm gonna keep that all the way down on that so i'm gonna go ahead and staple this one in so now we're gonna start in the middle and i'm going to pull it tight and i've got to figure out which one i want okay i think i'm going to make it that right there right out of staples if you see what i'm doing i'm just making sure this certain line is the same all the way down hey that's gonna look good and then once i pull that it's gonna tighten it up yay now let's do the ends and get it back on this wall so what i'm gonna do it's because my sides aren't gonna be showing i'm gonna go ahead and we're gonna pull this tight and staple staple and then we're gonna tuck that in like that and staple time to get this baby back on the wall and screwed back up there i think this is gonna be a little bit of fun maybe not a whole lot i just kind of guessed the holes i just kind of spaced them out i'm gonna use these buttons with the dark on them voila it's done the buttons aren't wanting to pop on for whatever reason all these popped on fine those are not wanting to snap on i don't know but the way it looks it kind of gives that beach look with the silver buttons so that's how i'm gonna leave it now let's make the bed back up and see how it all looks so there it is i think it turned out amazing i think it looks really cute you can do this if i did it anybody can do it it was way easier than i thought it was going to be
