How do you cut wallpaper so that it will cover the side of surfaces that are semi circle without the bulges?

Question

I tried cutting the corners into sections so that when I fold it downwards to cover the sides it wont bulge, but the end result is not nice to look at. The cut edges were eye sores. I wonder how the makers of computer tables did it since all curved sides were smoothly covered. I was thinking that maybe there is pattern to follow when covering curved sides. please help me.

Hmm when you are trying to cover curves, you need to snip into the fabric to ease it around the actual curve. I guess wallpaper must be similar. Try taking little vee shaped nicks out of it .......... not promising it will work though.
