Strippin'… wallpaper that is.

We got the keys to our house last week! Whee!!

And this is what I did all weekend with Bob:

Stripped wallpaper!
We’ve finished the entire kitchen (including washing down the walls ready for paint) and the hall and all thats left to strip is the lounge and dinning rooms. Then it’s time to paint, then sand and stain floors then MOVE IN! wheeeee!!!!

We’ve got the Zen of Wallpaper steaming going on – we can take the whole sheet off in one piece -not bad huh? It means you can do this, with it:

I’ve been to a few op shops and markets lately and gotten a great haul and have been meaning to post some of my spoils. Below are a few things I picked up on a little trip to Sussex Inlet to stay at my uncle’s holiday hosue for the weekend:
