Default New Quilting Room

A few months ago I posted here asking for recommendations on wall color for my new room. In late April I started taking down the wallpaper which was a nightmare! I spent hours scraping and trying all kinds of tips, tricks and products. Just about the time I was getting really frustrated trying to get those last stubborn backing bits and glue remnants off without destroying my drywall I gave up and found a product called Gardz that basically reseals the drywall and allowed me to paint over it without any adhesion problems.

So last week I painted 1 coat of Gardz, 2 coats of primer and 2 coats of paint in 4 days. Whew! I'm loving the results and am getting settled in for good.

Here is the view from the doorway - the window you see faces west. I went with a soft yellow paint and am so happy with it.
