Here is our next project! The 2nd bedroom (aka future baby's room). As you can see we have a lot of work to do in this room! We just removed some beautiful paneling, to discover almost a hundred year old wallpaper (our house was built in 1910) on the walls and ceiling (yes, i said ceiling, ppl really put wallpaper on the ceiling) ((can you really call it wallpaper then, shouldn't we have to dub it ceilingpaper, which just then sounds funny, but maybe if they would have thought about it that way, they would have never even put wallpaper on the ceiling))
Anyway, we thought we would have to knock out the plaster and drywall, or skimcoat with mudd over all of it! But as i was praying for wisdom, God said to get wallpaper solution to remove the wallpaper, and to my amazement, it actually is coming off! and underneath, we found plaster, that has never been painted or anything! so now we will just patch the cracks and missing plaster and sand, then paint! Still alot of work, but i really wanted it to look like all the other rooms in the house, and so i am happy!
