Here is the result of a day of wallpaper removal. Somehow the heap of removed paper was more interesting in this form than gracing the walls.
I understand that centuries ago wallpaper was used as art and to mimick the look of luxurious fabrics.
Personally, I can’t wait til it is all removed from our rehab house. Let’s see… bedroom #2 and #3 completed. That just leaves bedroom #1, the foyer, a hall, the living room, dining room and one bathroom! YIKES!
I vow to never again buy a house that has wallpaper on the walls. Sometimes you get lucky and it comes right off. Sometimes it’s like superglued to the wall.
