Last week we decided to take on the project of removing the wall paper in our kitchen so that we could paint it. All is NOT going well!
This is what we found behind the layer of wall paper and paneling. What the heck!!! But if only that could have been the worst thing that we found. Oh no.
The ceiling of our kitchen also had been wall papered so on Saturday as I'm enjoying a wonderful day with my step daughter, mother, sister and many more friends scrapbooking, I come home to find THIS. Once the paper from the ceiling had been removed John found an area where our bath tub upstairs has been leaking for some time apparently. It was all "hiding behind the wall paper. He found lots of mold and now we have to not only remodel the kitchen but now the Bathroom upstairs has to been re-done before we can even start to put our kitchen back together. Oh and did I mention that I HATE to decorate and that I'm terrible at it???? This is for sure not something that is up my ally. So if any of my blogger friends are looking for some fun and would like to give ideas for a new kitchen my ears are all open. We did get the new floor for it for an amazing deal off an auction site so I have that and I do know that I want to paint my cupboards white. I think I've got some ideas on what to do with the rest of it but I need someone that can vision what I want and say "Oh that will look great when your done!"
This is what my poor husband looked like after cutting all of the bad area out. I was laughing so hard I could hardly stand it. This man is all in his glory right now. He loves to do things like this.

What a trooper! I love that photo of him. He's a character.
ReplyDeleteOh, my a whole kitchen and bathroom remodel? I love the idea of the cupboards being white. What kind of flooring did you pick up? Any ideas on paint color? If I can help or give ideas I will, but I would have to see the room.
