Paint, Paint Everywhere (Paper, Paper Everywhere II) June 24, 2007
Posted by nitestrike in : Home, Personal , add a commentWell the wall paper has been removed for about a week now. My part in the process decreased dramatically as I was sleeping more when my wife was awake due to my work schedule. Now it’s paint everywhere, well actually it’s globs of paint everywhere, our daughter was helping. I’ve had to clean up the woodwork twice now. And have her clean herself up a couple times also. But, it will all be worth it in the end. It will look great and we get the satisfaction of having done the work by our selves, mostly my wife.
Paper, paper, everywhere June 12, 2007

It actually begain with the Living Room, but that is just a gleam in the eye of owning this house. We had the kitchen remodled, redecorated, call it what you will. And as always my wife did a wounderful job of designing it. But right now we are redecorating the Dinning Room, and I think i have found the most maddening thing ever! Taking down wall paper, it does not want to copperate. We have it mostly off one wall, and thank goodness it’s the most papered wall. Then on top of that there are two different colors of wall paper, but the same design and they are totally different when taking them down. So my advise to you, those crazy enough to heed it, get it done professionally least you end up in a straight jacket. I’ll keep you all apraised of the progress, and hey there might even be a few pictures.
