At least we got a good laugh with Trudy. :)

Someone please hit me.

I started taking the wall paper off the only room left with the stuff on it.

Thankfully, it only has one layer, so it won't be a gosh awful job this time.

Getting all the paper down low first. I'm not fond of ladders, but will be forced to use one anyway.

Yeah, I do stupid stuff all the time. ;)

Wall paper! The stuff of nightmares!

It the house I grew up in, there was one room with 7 layers of paper and it was painted over.

It was a nightmare.

Lily, it is a nightmare with 7 layers! Did one of those a few years back.

Luckily, this room only has one layer, so it is coming off fairly easily.

Taking a break. Have almost two whole walls de-papered.

Our house was filled with wallpaper. It was a nightmare. DH did the best he could to remove it, but the walls were bumpy and the paint would bubble a little. Eventually I had the contractor mud the walls to smooth them out whenever we were having a remodeling project done.

I think I'm going to have to re-mud a wall... :(

Good thing my dad taught me how to do this stuff.

We have two bathrooms with tile, ugly 70s tile, on the walls.

I want to take a sledge hammer to it.

Wallpaper?!? ($*%($*$*#(#* I remember removing it. Well, I remember the nightmare that it was and it was only one layer. The kitchen was horrible. That sanitize stuff that I think was put up with gorilla glue. But now, it looks like we have plaster walls. That's how much we had to spackle. But it looks good that way.

We did keep the wallpaper in the bathroom tho since it is so tacky.  It's outlines of naked ladies.

If someone reeminds me how to do a spoiler, I can post pictures.

That's exactly what we did.  Gutted the whole thing, down to the studs.

I like tasteful wallpaper if used sparingly.

 And it was worth it!  Modeling my master bath reno after it.  I forgot to take pics!  Please take some and send to me?  Pretty please?
