If
you follow me on Instagram, you’ve seen that we've been working on another
little house project! {If you don’t follow, you should. You’ll
see a lot of cute little girls. You've been warned.}
The
½ bathroom off of our utility room needs some serious lovin’. Take a look at the before pictures – the wallpaper
was ridiculous and the vanity took up so much room in there.
Daniel
and I started taking down the wallpaper by using our clothes steamer ;) It
totally worked for the top layer. There
was still some left on the wall, so we got out a spray bottle and filled it
with 1/3 water & 2/3 fabric softener. Worked like a charm. It scraped the
rest of the paper right off the wall.
I
then talked Daniel into pulling up the hardwood in there, so we could put new
flooring down. I wanted to be able to
start from an empty room, so we could do whatever we wanted. We've already decided what to do with the walls,
although I need to decide on a color. We
are going to wait to take a trip to the tile shop and decide on a new floor
then.
Stay
tuned for more updates on Instagram and then the final result!!
I hear that taking down wallpaper is one of the worst things ever!!! Sounds like you figured out a way to make it easier.
ReplyDeleteYeah thankfully it wasn't too too bad - but I definitely don't want to do it again in the near future!
