This accent wall was done by the previous owners, by hand. I would really like to update it, maybe paint it. Possibly a charcoal color? What are your thoughts?
You will need to find the wall studs so you can attach it securely. Here's a link on how to find them:

Hi, Brandi!
The headboard can be mounted to the studs using pipe straps ( like these) and screws, or holes can be drilled directly through the headboard into the studs. I hope this helps!
You might have a create a bracket out of wood for the headboard to "sit" in. You will just need to make sure it's a tight enough fit that it doesn't move too much.
Maybe hang a 2 by 2 long and rest the headboard on it
Hello there,
You will need to fix a batten to the wall to be able to screw something like pipe clips that will fit around the uprights. You may well need row battends, one below the other to stop rock! Best wishes.

Hi Brandi, you sure can, just make y=sure you use wall plugs or find studs to attach it to. Hope this helps.

I feel better when finding the studs in the wall and using those to attach the headboard.
