Once each piece is cut, you can start decorating them. We found a leftover roll of wallpaper with a great texture and pattern. We didn't like the color but we decided to use it anyway and simply spray paint over the paper.

This one roll was perfect in width and had enough length to do all five pieces with leftover for trims (explained later).

Cut five pieces of wallpaper to cover one side of each panel. Allow excess on each side you can cut away later.

Prepare wallpaper paste to manufacturer's instructions. Using a large paintbrush, apply the paste to one side of the panel and to the back of the wallpaper.

Stick the wallpaper to the timber by starting from one side and smoothing it down towards the end, using a sponge to squeeze out air bubbles along the way. Repeat this for all five panels.

Once dry, turn upside down, and use a large cutting mat and craft knife to trim off the excess wallpaper.

Turn back over. Now you can experiment with jazzing up the wallpaper by painting it.

We had several cans of spray paint in different colors so we experimented with all. Each color created a slightly different effect in terms of transparency. With the yellow, we sprayed four or five coats over the wallpaper, which allowed a perfect amount of original wallpaper color to shine through. The blue spray paint only took two coats and completely covered the color, leaving a subtler pattern of the embossed surface.
