I mentioned on chat I was going to take down the wallpaper in my bathroom and paint it. The paper had been there from the previous owner. I said I would take photos so ......

This is what I started with. Luckily the wallpaper came down cleanly after doing the prep.

Oops! Found more wallpaper underneath. The wallpaper hanger had tried to take down a bunch of it but some was left.

Prepped and ready to paint. The walls not the cat.

Job complete. Walls painted. Next I need to retouch some of the woodwork and eventually replace the shower with a jetted tub/shower and replace the sinks. That's when a rich relative leaves me $ but I don't have any rich relatives so it may be awhile.

And here are the grandchildren yesterday - Hannah and Griffin. Not sure if he's happy with the hand holding.

That looks like a totally successful re-do! I like the taupe with the crisp trim. And the GK's are such cuties!

you did good Vicki really like the colors and don't envy you the job of taking down wall paper did it on a living room! Not an easy job....why is it we always have to wait for the rich uncle that doesn't exsist?

Oh well enjoy your new restroom ok?

You should be very proud of how it turned out. Job well done. Beautiful! Love the GKs, too! Such cuties!


Sometimes, the only right answer is silence...which in and of itself speaks a thousand words.

Nice job. Looks like another bathroom. I also like your color choice.
