"Wallpaper Step 1"

After a lovely break this weekend, attending my cousin's wedding, I got back to Dad's room today.

I had the photos I want in his room printed and had gone shopping for cheap frames the other day, so I married them today and can't wait to put them up.

After that, I decided to do step 1 of my wallpapering and painted on the wall size I had tinted a chocolate brown, in case any seems show through the paper.

I laid down my drop sheet and taped off the baseboard...


I'll be laying out my wallpaper on the floor tomorrow, so I might as well have the drop cloth down. Plus my hardwood was protected from the chocolate brown cast off from the roller that I just finished scrubbing off my hands and arms.


And here is the result...


Those darn corners were a bit difficult to do, but I think it turned out okay. Next, wallpaper. I'd better watch the Lowe's tutorial again for good measure.

Now for some Tostito's and salsa. Mmmmm.
