Scraping Wallpaper

There is a long hallway in front of the kitchen at Bedlam Farm, it connects the family room with the long living room on the other side. In this rain and humidity, it has begun peeling and Maria and I fresh from our de-wallpapering at our new home last Summer and Fall, decided to go as far as we could with scraping off the old layers of paper. There were many. I think it’s time to ball Ben in for the sanding and spackling, Maria and I have already devoted two days to cleaning off the walls and we are short on the right tools. And we are tired and hot, too.

It was nice being inside the farmhouse again, it looks wonderful and is ready to receive it’s new family, whenever they appear.
