DIY Headboard {part 2}

I'm back with the 2nd part of my DIY Headboard tutorial. Go here to catch up on Part 1. 

We left off with the headboard completely covered in fabric.

Next working on the bottom left side of the headboard, I started to attach the nailhead trim. I bought a nailhead trim kit online. I have heard they are easier to use for a novice like myself, and are easier to keep a nice straight line. I bought my trim here, and you just lay the trim down and add the occasional nail in the "empty" nail spots provided. I used my household hammer and it worked fine.

I decided to do the outer edge first so I used the side of the headboard as a guide and lined it up as I went along. 

 

Around the corners I bent it a little so that it would contour to the corner shape. 

This trim kit was so easy to work with, I was so nervous but it really is so simple (and dare I say fun?) After I got the outer edge entirely covered, I needed something to help me evenly space the inner line to the outer line. I decided that my staple gun was the perfect size and guide and it worked marvelously.

I just kept measuring and moving it along. Pretty soon, I had the inner edge done as well.

And that's it, I love how it turned out.

Now just a few more updates and my master bedroom will be all finished.
