Tear Down the Walls

Not actually the walls, but the wallpaper.

From the moment I first saw my house, I absolutely hated the wallpaper in the master bathroom. I knew one day I'd get rid of it. Well, the moment has finally arrived. I have a bit of free time while I wait for the warmer weather necessary to continue with my pinball restoration so I figured I could fill it with some home improvement. The master bathroom was at the top of the list.

Here's what I was starting with. Awfully ugly in my opinion.

Some perforation, wallpaper remover and patience removed this layer of wallpaper to discover and even uglier blue wallpaper.

More perforation, more remover and even more patience finally gets me to the drywall.


Next up I'll have to repair any damage to the drywall before proceeding. Then, I can paint it. I'll update after the next stage is complete.
