It actually wasn't too bad. We had a little help from Ross' brother and family. But the kitchen was the worst. It came off in one inch little pieces. Ross did that one solo. He is such a hard worker!
Ross has now returned from over a week long trip to CA for some training. My mom came to stay with me for a couple of days while he was gone and we got a lot of painting done. My lovely sister-in-law watched the kids for a day while we went to town on those walls. Man, choosing paint colors is not easy. I thought it was, and I'm not a perfectionist, but now that it's MY house and I have to live with it for quite a while, it's important that I REALLY like it. And I do. I don't have pictures of the rooms painted yet.
Master bedroom: lovely purple with floral wallpaper
2nd bedroom: blue and green plaid with duck border
Hallway: vinyl stripey. (that one came of really easily)
Kitchen: removing old phone
Those names say Jennifer, 7-10-75, and Ashley 10-30-87

Good work! It looks like it will be really cute!
Aghhhh I helped my mom take down wallpaper once. It is not fun. That looks like a ton of wallpaper too! I applaud you!
You're going to make your house look adorable! I'm excited to see after pictures!
I hate wall paper!! I am really impressed with you for taking it all down and doing such a nice job. We lived in a place that had 4 layers of wall paper in one room, I couldn't believe that the people would just cover up the last one time and time again it was not some of my best moments.
I am glad that you made it through that part. Painting will feel like a breeze now. Good luck.
