The bird has landed here in Florida - it experienced a moderately safe trip from Calif - blow out on tag axle on passenger side - but it turned out to be lovely with the interior needing only minor changes and of course a through cleaning....drapes to the cleaners and the bedspread and cornice boards and headboard will be the only major changes......does anyone know how to remove the cornice boards and and headboard.....of coudse I will use the old bedspread to alter a new one....

Hopefully we will see you at the birdnest in a couple of weeks

Hi Sandy & Joe,
I removed and reupholstered the cornice boards in our ’90. As I recall there are a series of angle brackets holding them in place. While I had them out I installed rope lighting and put in a switch that allowed alternating between the fluorescent lights and the rope lights. The switch was hidden inside the valance and after positioning it for either set of lights, the original wall switch is used to turn them on and off. The rope lights are nice at night when the fluorescents are too bright. It is time consuming to remove the cornice boards so if you are contemplating doing this, have the lighting supplies on hand so they will only have to be removed once. The effect was so nice I continued on and installed it in all valences up front. This “upgrade” leaves no marks and is completely hidden when not turned on as the rope was mounted in a plastic channel on the wall directly over the fluorescents. I also removed and reupholstered the headboard to match. The screws were hidden in the pleats of the fabric. Have fun!
Rich D.
