Wallpaper Headboard
How To

2009-12-wallpaperhead.jpg

We've written about ways to create faux headboards for beds (especially for children who sleep on the floor) with paint and decals so to round out the trifecta we're pointing you towards a tutorial on making a headboard with wallpaper.

 
 

It's another fabulous project found in Derek Fagerstrom and Lauren Smith's book Wallpaper Projects which is making working with wallpaper less intimidating and more appealing with each project we see. The full how-to is hosted on Etsy's Storque blog which you can find here. It's pretty straightforward, but, best of all, they include a template so you can achieve those curves without tearing your hair out (or create your own, of course).

Anyone know what that great yellow wallpaper is? I flipped through the comments on Etsy but no one asked, and it's an older post.

It's from twenty2. They also do custom colorways.
