Here's the "Before"
Every inch of the kitchen was covered in this nice '70's era wallpaper. Luckily, the previous owners properly prepped the walls before applying it, because it came off easily. Are you ready for the "After?"
Yeah. Such a huge difference. And it only took an hour or so to remove all of the paper.
Today's projects:
- Clean kitchen walls
- Patch holes/dings
- Start removing wallpaper from living room.
The living room wallpaper is the textured grass paper (again, Hello '70s!), so I'm afraid that it's going to be a pain to remove. I've picked out the color that I'd like to use for the papered wall in the living room, but need to figure out coordinating colors for the rest of the living room and kitchen. I can do the work, if someone else would just pick out the colors. I want to paint the kitchen cabinets, but I'll keep the flooring and countertop as is...they're in pretty good shape.
I'm also having someone come out and give me an estimate for taking down the wall between the kitchen and dining room...and building an island for me.
More pictures tomorrow.
