to use towels as ground cloths while removing some wallpaper (the towels soak up the water so the hardwood floors remain undamaged).

in the living room is now wallpaper free. I now need to prep the walls for painting.

There is a section of wall which consists of a bunch of rustic looking doors (made the from same paneling I have been removing elsewhere). The doors open to the back of the sink and dishwasher – I like the concept, but not the execution. It is going to be a big deal to put something nice there. 20 months ago

I depopulated a full-wall sized bookshelf, and removed the shelves. All sorts of wood trim come out now (that is what the crowbar is for) and then the wallpaper must go. 20 months ago
