stripping wallpaperThe much anticipated visit of our infant grand-niece recently inspired us to clear out a spare bedroom in our old farmhouse and turn it into a nursery. Top priority was replacing the stained 1950’s era wallpaper with a fresh coat of paint.

Having done this several years ago in the living room and hall I knew what we’d find as we started to remove several layers of old wallpaper.

I wasn’t surprised to find:

- cracks of various sizes
- fist-size holes of crumbled plaster
- loose plaster due to broken keys

All easy to fix once you know what to do.
