Looks like you are going to be rewarded for all your hard work with a nice sewing area!!

We just took the paper off our kitchen last weekend. The only thing that made it fairly enjoyable was that it was the ugliest wallpaper I've ever seen. Have lived with it for 9 yrs. Decided it was time :?

Your workin way to hard, but what a beautiful pay off you'll get. I'am green with envy, enjoy. Silly me I had the bright Idea that I could take the two wall out of the spare bedrooms and make one big sewing room, wrong. They are bering walls and my huby and son say the roof could fall in. Not sure I believe them but guess the walls stay.

Tell me about the wall paper, we bought this house most all those room have wallpaper, and I hate it so just taking it one room at a time...I still need to finish tile in our Master bedroom but the tile I want is expensive so I have to wait to do it. This bedroom much smaller so I thought we could go ahead and do it and get a cheaper tile, I hate carpet, makes me sneeze a lot...plus with the dogs running in and out all day makes them so dirty and you can't keep them clean and all you got to do with tile is sweep and mop...

Gonna have to quit for today! Went and got my dern ole back to hurting... :oops:

Our Master Bathroom had two layers, do you remember the shinning silver wallpaper back in the 70's that was under the wallpaper in the bathroom...it was soooo ugly!
