In this video, I finally got to redo a hutch! This was something that I had been wanting to paint and flip for some time now! I am so excited that I was able to pull this look off! The wallpaper backing sure did give me a hard time but in the end, the challenge was worth it! I hope you enjoy the finished product! (: Thanks for watching!

You can put the wallpaper on a piece of MDF, then using double-sided tape to hold it in place. The shelves will also keep the “false back” in place.

😎From AZ...Awesome ideas on how to attach wallpaper, etc to bookcase inside back or cabinets. For example; I use IKEA Billy bookcases often for many of the rental homes I have owned and they are great to carry a heavy load per shelf and now come in prepainted colors. I removed the backing, papered and carefully re-nailed the back on with tiny nails. Great updated look for staging with minimal decor pieces or tenants books etc.

I have a piece I’m working on now with warped doors. I looked up a old trick that worked great and it straightened the doors. If you can remove the glass...do so first. If not it’s fine with them in just need to be more careful. I laid the doors on the concrete garage floor. Put wet rags over all the wood and kept the rags wet. Put weight on each corner of the door frame to weigh it down flat to the floor. As the water draws into the wood it slowly took the warp out! Kept the rags and weight on the doors for a full day and night. Worth a try and it did work for me! Maybe you can try it to on a future project with this issue! By the way...I use to live in Bellevue and now live in southwest Colorado...and my son and his family live in Millard area of Omaha. Small world! You did a great job 👏🏻

It is really cute!!! Good job! Try using the wallpaper that you wet on the back rather than peel and stick. Everyone will tell you that peel and stick is easy. But even pros hate it. The kind that you wet on the back allows for more leeway. It is also even cheaper with greater selection. You can line it up once wet and it is wayyyyyy more forgiving allowing you movement without folding and bending your paper. Also a dry eraser is nicer for burnishing because it doesn't scratch the paper.

If you place the one door in a vice for a few days and make sure it's bent in the opposite direction for a few days, it should take the bow out.

Beautiful job as usual! Glad to see the navy paint covered it well. Usually mahogany is a terrible bleeder.

When your screws are stripped or when having trouble getting a good grip with the screw and the screwdriver, use a rubber band to put in between and it will give you grip. Kind of like using a rubber mat to open a jar of pickles.

Wall paper. A very sharp exacto blade. Only use one blade for one cut. Snap blade off use new blade always after every cut. Use the manufacturer’s edge to butt up to manufacturer’s edge. Plane ahead so your paper will still match. You could put paper down the center put matches on each side of center strip

I think removing the doors brought it into this decade. This would look good in a kitchen, dining room, office, kids room. Anywhere. I'm not a fan of the wallpaper only because it isn't my personal taste and because it's such a bold design it limits who might be interested. I'm loving that navy paint and matte finish though. Really pretty, AGAIN!!!
