A to-do-list

written in 15 minutes as that is how long the wait is for Diff to saturate the ugly wallpaper in your living room and hallway that one is finally taking down.
1. Take down the wallpaper
2. Finish Circle Journal(by 7/1)
3. Paper Mache letters for Maya's room
4. Finish birdy and flower pictures for Maya's room
5. Find frames for above pictures
6. Hang letters and pictures with frames
7. Finish the Fall dance schedule
8. Paint hallway and living room
9. Weed out old scrapbook stuff for garage sale
10. Price all items for garage sale
I think I have too many projects going on at once. I started peeling wallpaper at 4pm. It's now 8:49pm. I did one wall. Picture a long narrow hallway. I did the wall at the end between the two long walls. My loving hubby scored an entire long wall. That's what I am diffing. Anyone ever tried a steamer? I may have better luck with that. I.will.never.wallpaper.EVER.

Maybe you could do a little jump to make your diff waiting time go a little quicker. Maybe it will work.? At least it will make you smile :)

Wallpaper is the devil.

Sorry you're having such a time with it.

I remember watching a decorating show where they used fabric softener and water and sprayed it on the paper. You might want to try doing a google search for the exact recipe as the show didn't give exact measurements for the concoction.

Good luck! :D

I have used straight fabric softener several times. It works great and makes your house smell good too.
