Our Bathroom

Our Bathroom

What We had to do to make our bathroom look "Better".

1: Strip the wallpaper. This was the longest the most time consuming part. It was also the hardest. We tried wallpaper stripper, wallpaper scorer, and several different tactics. The most effective one we found was to score the wall all over with no more then ¼ inch dividing each hole. Then taking hot water and using a roller plastering the wall with the water. Then let it sit for about 1 min. Then the wall paper would come off relatively easily.

2: Then we put tape and plastic over all the edges and furniture.

3: We then painted the walls.

4: We moved the tape from the walls to the ceiling after the paint had dried, and then we painted the ceiling.

5: We removed the tape and did a little touch up.

6: After all that work, taking about two weeks if not more (working ½- 2 hours a day), we needed a break. So we took one. It was nice!
