Back to remodeling. We did a couple more projects in our first house, remodeling the kitchen and the bathroom. Yes, a single bathroom. Not sure how we survived that. We moved into this house and they had two of our favorite decor items: wallpaper and borders. Yes, I'm being sarcastic. Unfortunately we don't have any good "before" pictures, only during and after.
Here is a nice shot after it was peeled from one wall.
This wall was half wallpaper, with a border above the green paint. Thanks to Laura's hard work and persistence, the pugnacious paper was peeled from our walls.
We primed the walls so we had a clean slate to start from.

At this point in our lives, Laura was still into ivy patterns, so we went with a green that coordinated well with it.
Then I added a chair rail around part of the room. We also replace the old linoleum with some nicer vinyl tile. I was still not adventurous enough to attempt laying actual floor tile.
We added some color on wood panels above the kitchen cabinets as well.
Not a terribly exciting remodel here, but it was a big improvement and brightened up a rather dull-looking room.
