Re-decorating Brag

[avoncallingu]

Every part of my body is SORE!

After months of trying to get this organized I (with the help of a friend) finally finished wallpapering 1 - yes only 1- wall in our den. This is the first domino which leads to 3 rooms being reorganized! I hadn't wallpapered anything for maybe 20 years. I USED to be very proficient at it! (If I do say so myself!) but OH MY ACHING BACK!

I feel really good about it though.

Great job avon! Decorating is not as simple as some TV shows want us to believe. It is planning + buying supplies + work itself. Your back is sore but this is the price we pay sometimes. Take it easy for a while and give your back some support. Take care and enjoy your new decorated wall.

Awesome, good for you!

Nice to see wallpaper is making a comeback; I know it wasn't the 'in' thing for a time!

Thanks, folks! I'm not as sore today. I've always liked wallpaper but have "come around" to paint. My dsil loves paint and Hates wallpaper. She teases me that she has a recurring nightmare that I sneak into their house while they're away and WALLPAPER everywhere! LOL! No fear! They have 20 ft. high walls in their familyroom!

Nice you had help and I'm sure it looks awesome. The last time I wallpapered we had to scrap the old stuff off...omg! Never again lol.
Enjoy and get some rest
