have you done any designs of how you want it to look like, once u've done that you then have to decide what materials can be used to get the desired effect. _________________

its easier then u think it is to do. just buy some padding shit, cut it out and glue it over your door card, cover it wit material and glue the back and cut out bits so that the plugs will go into the holes. Thats how its done in "simple" terms |
