Wallpaper!

WALLPAPER!
I appreciate the guest post, Ignacio Phillips
I had no idea how to remove old, moldy wallpaper but I figured it couldn’t be that hard, right? WRONG! When I bought my house I knew it was going to need some work but I did not count on the worst part of it being that all the rooms had wallpapers and borders! I took to my Wireless Internet to research the best way to get it down and apparently there was a product out there that scores the wallpaper for you, making holes to soak in a solution you then squirt on that helps dissolve the glue. After that the wallpaper’s supposed to just peel off in your! hands…yeah right! My first try was an absolute disaster and my wallpaper kept breaking off in wet, squishy chunks…not exactly the best way to leave a wall. After try number three I decided it was finally time to go ahead and call a professional which was the best thousand dollars I ever spent in my life! I was going to go crazy if I had to touch one more piece of wallpaper!
