Idea #1 for Marbel


Christine,

Do you have any great ideas on how to remove wallpaper? All three of our kids are sharing a room...with Victorian pink rose wall paper...it has been up for at least 40 years. Very cool actually for the girls...but not for Steven. What would you suggest we do with the walls to make it more unisex? Emily age 8(almost), Rachel and Steven, age 3.

Thanks...Marbel!

Dear Marbel,

After 40 years, I would say that if it wanted to come down, it would have on its own. Aside from taking two weeks of your life to focus on soaking, scoring, steaming, and pealing, I'd say, let's just cover it up! Let me give you some ideas!


Idea #1- Wallpaper. Yes- that's right, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em! My favorite source for children's paper? Mine mine. They are soooo cool! Go to http://www.minemine.com/ to see a super fun selecton.
Stay tuned, I have a few more ideas for you!

Michal,
Fun Huh? I just love the sophistication of the designer's style, yet still so youthful.
