Vinyl it...

If you know me... I am not the most crafty person in the world.  In fact, I don't particularly love doing crafts.  The worst part is, I own a huge vinyl plotter and I don't have any vinyl that I have done in my whole house... pretty sad.  I see things all the time that I would love to do and I just never get around to it.  Several months ago, my parents got a new bed and gave us their old sleep number mattress.  When we finished our basement, we moved our old bed and bed frame downstairs and put my parents mattress in our bedroom.  Not that our bedroom is anything fancy, but it kind of bugged me that we didn't have a headboard.  I had seen a couple of examples of headboards that people had done out of vinyl and I thought, "Hey, I could do that."  Time goes by... and nothing, like always.  However, Tanner and I have created a House To do list for one of our New Years resolutions and that was on it.  I designed it and cut it and wasn't in love... tweaked a couple of things and then dreaded putting up the four separate pieces.  We taped it up and couldn't agree on what was straight so it sat there like that for a week.  One day when I felt like both of us were in a pretty good mood and we wouldn't kill each other, we tried to tackle the project again.  Success and I love it.  It was even better than I had imagined.  Tanner wanted to post it on Thrifty Seeker and I told him he was crazy, if the two of us struggled (and I would like to consider us vinyl experts) how was your average Joe supposed to do it?  We will see... maybe I will design something a little less intricate and a little more user friendly.  Here is our end result...
