How did you strip all the wallpaper in your kitchen in two hours? I've been working on the upstairs bathroom all day and I'm still not done! This is the first time I've seriously worked at it, but I've picked at it at least twice before this! It's coming off pretty well (although I hope there's a special place in hell for contractors who don't size the walls before they paper). I'll need to sand a little, but not much.
:blush: so I got ya motivated there huh....LOL....its funny Donna...when dh and I lived in California...we had this cute little house...with hideous wallpaper in the kitchen...it took us three weeks of stripper....scoring, steam...it was awful...I swore I would never wallpaper or have it in my home again...:lol:....well this old place has it in one bathroom and the kitchen....I had pealed little spots...and thought oh no not again...come to find out it was an easy removal job....probably because of the lathe and plaster underneath...and the fact that the person who did the wall papering didn't do a good job...:biglaugh: thank goodness....
hope it all come off for ya.....:crazyroll and know I a routing for ya...:lol:
ok Donna....how did it come out?:p ;) :D

I didn't work on it yesterday, and I've got school today, so maybe tomorrow. Dh needs to take the mirror down so I can get behind it, and I'll finish up the very top of the walls at the ceiling. Here's the paper I'm using:

You may have to cut and paste that link.
It looks good with the blue tile in the shower and it'll be fairly neutral for the boys. The other stuff was really busy and pretty juvenile.
I like it....its good for boys....I hate busy bathrooms.:lol:
