I was asked to demonstrate how to do my $20 upholstered headboard and my pintuck technique to turn any cheap pillow and duvet into a designer look. I wish I had more time on both of these to get into more details since a lot of things were missed, but I'm just glad I didn't mess up too much or have too big of brain farts lol :) (ps. if you can't view the videos in the players below, look at the bottom of the post for smaller videos)
Here's the headboard! If you listen a bit, I give some good tips to cut even more corners and make this headboard that much cheaper. Don't laugh at me too hard:
And the pintuck technique. Super short...but it's super simple so not much more was needed :)
That's one of the big pieces of the big news....the other, well I'm not sure I should do this and put this out there. But, I know I want to do this and haven't yet since I have had no accountability. I'm going to start doing videos on most of my projects :) Ahh! I just said it. Now I have to do it lol. I've been mulling this over for the past couple of years and decided as my New Year's resolution I would do it this year. Well, since I didn't tell anybody about it, it didn't matter that I didn't do it :) Now I have no excuses (although I know I can come up with some and am sure I will try). The videos will only be for applicable pieces that make sense to even have a video. I'm not going to video tape how to paint something...I guess unless its a uber special never been seen before technique lol. Or room makeovers...things like that. I'm going to try to do small scale, sort of like I did in the above clips. We'll see how it goes and what it evolves into :) And don't shoot me if I don't do as many as you think I should...especially once this new babe comes around :)
Hope you enjoyed the videos and thanks for joining in on my embarrassment as you watch them ;) lol
