Master Bathroom

One of the items on my List of Things to Accomplish is stripping the wallpaper in the master bathroom.

I like our house, but our master bathroom is one hot mess. First there was the wallpaper issue.

Then there is the whole carpet on the floor.


The plan is to strip, paint, pull up carpet, lay tile. This has been the plan all along, but it was rudely (and sweetly) interrupted with M.P. (Total aside - the day after we closed on the house, was this day.)


We've been in this house a bit over a year and, I hadn't made much progress. Last weekend Dad and I started in on earnest (mostly Dad) and realized stripping wallpaper (especially wall paper that has been attached to the walls for 13 years) should be a new circle in Hell in Dante's Inferno.


So we did what any yuppies would do. We hired someone.

So yes, I am crossing this one off my list, but there is an asterisk beside it since I didn't do it myself.



We will paint ourselves.


And possibly lay tile. We shall see.

Can't wait to see the results! And no worries on hiring someone - after doing alot of that ourselves (including removing wallpaper) we now hire often!
