Day 4: no more wallpaper!

Today is a momentous day in the Gingue household. Over the past two days my husband and I have peeled, and peeled, and you guessed it, peeled wallpaper from our living room and dining area. And it wasn't the thin easy to remove kind either, it was the thick embossed wallpaper that had been painted. twice.  We decided to take it down after our sweet Brooklyn took it upon herself to start peeling little bits off here-and-there (even she knew it was ugly).  It was time for an update anyway, the paint on the wallpaper was chipping and the colors were dark and not our style.

Anyway, we finally finished taking it down!  Eight trash bags full of wallpaper later... we will never, ever have to see it again.  Although instead of just throwing it away I feel like a wallpaper bonfire would have been a better way to dispose of it. Break out the marshmallows and torch that crap!

So right now I am incredibly thankful we have completed this part of our project, we're nowhere near done yet but we're getting there.
