What I was thinking of isn't real planks or even thin luan-type planks. What I saw was wallpaper. Some of the wallpapers even had a slightly roughed up texture to it but most of them were just made to look like rustic planks. Some looked more realistic than others as well and I'm certain that this type of application would hold up, provided I did the prep work needed. Hmmmm....still going to keep looking. I like the look or real planks but I am not interested in doing the ton of work involved with real planks.
There are many varieties of wall coverings out there. The not so good news is that an installer would have to remove any existing wall paper or wall covering to install new stuff.
If this is for a headboard, could you install a panel that is cosmetically what you envision? Are you able to install some fasteners to hold the panel?
FWIW, I've worked with my BIL, the upholsterer, and we've made wall panels for bedrooms and such. They are attached to the wall with screws into the studs. Some have been used as a headboard, also.
