And the Renovation Begins!

So...we have lived in our house since January of 2007...time flies. I cannot believe that we made it with this awful wallpaper in our bathroom for this long. (Well, the wallpaper isn't so bad, but check out that border!) Today, the wallpaper removal process begins! After going through the wallpaper removal/texturing walls experience before, we opted to hire this one out. So Fopay Paperhanging of Longview is here today tearing down the wallpaper. Depending on how things go, they will be done on Tuesday or Wednesday of this week. Since the wallpaper was put directly on the sheetrock when the house was built 11 years ago, there is a good chance that there will be some damage to the drywall from the removal process. If so, they will make any repairs necessary and then do blown texture on all of the walls. After all that is done, I will paint...I can't wait for it to be done!!! See the "before" pictures below.
