i thought i'd do a little post on my faux bamboo headboard on how i did it..
so here it is.
i started out by measuring the length of my bed, to see how long it should be, and i really just eye-balled the height, but you want to make sure it is high enough for your pillows to come up, and if you are doing something decorative like me, you want to be able to show a little of that off as well. after i measured and decided how thick i wanted the outline of the headboard to be (2.5 inches), i taped it off and drew lines with a watercolor pencil, then painted it...
i went back in and painted lines where the bamboo pieces are supposed to "criss cross" (where i'm pointing). you could be SUPER precise and measure exactly where each criss cross is supposed to go, but i just sort of did it at random, and tried to make sure i did some going each way. there are a few places where it's a little off, but it doesnt bother me TOOOOOO much (it does bother me a little though :))
here i went back in and painted the lines where they would be under the "frame"
pointing at it, so you can see (i look terrible - sorry, i'm sleepy :))
aaaand, it's done. it's still wet, so i haven't propped all my bed stuff up again, but its done. it looks better in person, and i could stand to be a little more precise. buuuut, it's pretty close, and that is good enough for me, for now!
Oh Kirsten, what a great idea! Especially for someone like me whose business is wicker repair and chair caning! Bamboo would fit right in, too! Love it, love it!
