The Weekend works wonders!

A lot of progress was made on Saturday, and a lot of paint was purchased on Sunday.

First on Saturday...we started with the living room, and dealt with the grass textured wallpaper.  Here's the before:


This stuff was miserable to try and remove.  We started with a steamer, and it just shredded on us.  So, we got some of this stuff:

This stuff is a miracle solution.  Not that anyone cares, but it worked like a charm...when following the instructions, letting it sit on the wallpaper for 15 minutes and then working it off...we ended up with this:
It made such a difference to get rid of that 70's wallpaper!

While Abby and I worked on the living room walls, my BFF Beth got busy on the hall bathroom and my bedroom.  No before photos, but here are some "after":


On Sunday,  Abby filled nail holes in her bedroom, and in the hall bath.  Then my sister Caren, Abby, and I went to Home Depot and bought paint for the living room, kitchen, and the majority of the rest of the house. Also bought paint for kitchen cabinets, new hardware for cabinets, and a new light fixture for the dining room.  

I'm ready to get started with the painting!
