As DIY as I get

I'm definitely not a Do it Yourself type person, but I got a little bee in my bonnet a few weeks ago.  We had this HORRIBLE wall paper in our bedroom and it has just been a source of 'Blah' whenever I went in there, so I decided to get rid of it!!!  I spent about 2 days tearing down wallpaper during Charlotte's nap time and after she went to bed (everything takes way more time with a one year old).  Then spackled, primed and painted!  It was fun having a project to do.  Maybe I'll get inspired again soon to tackle something else!


The before (yuck!!)




during the de-wallpapering :)




Both Donald and I agreed that we preferred this over the wallpaper :)





priming..




There's the new wall (minus the tape)

Now my bedroom is a nicer place to be, it's amazing what a difference a wall can make!
