Laowai

I’m becoming an expert at removing wallpaper. This time it’s our bedroom. Brian has been more bothered than me looking at that busy wallpaper everyday. But I was feeling like I needed a project. So here I go. I took lots of before pictures this morning. Then I got to work. 

There were some extra bits of the wallpaper in our basement so earlier this week I took a piece to be framed. I’d like to remember the wallpaper. I guess I’m drawn to retro and colorful stuff.

Claire made this drawing a long time ago and taped it to the wall. It’s stayed there because it kind of blended in with the wallpaper and it makes me smile. 

I had a long day without the kiddos because Claire went to play with a friend for a couple hours this morning. I was able to get one whole wall done. What a change! Right now I can only think about painting it white, but maybe I’ll come up with a way to add a little color back into the room.
