2 Weeks, 2 Layers

Two weeks from today my summer will come to an end and I have to go back to work!   This summer as FLOWN by so fast!  I don't know where it has gone.  My goal was to do something productive every single day....I did really well the first two weeks.  I started with the half bathroom on our main floor, it isn't finished yet.  When I started stripping the wallpaper I realized THERE WAS ANOTHER LAYER OF WALLPAPER UNDERNEATH!  Here are a few before pictures (the room is small, it wasn't easy to get good pictures from the door where I was standing).




Aren't the curtains and wallpaper just lovely?  I enjoyed the matching pinks so much I was sad to see them go:)  (The plant you see in the window is in the addition which I call the "lanai")

After I removed the wallpaper it looked horrible!  There was no way I could not not rip some of the top drywall layer off, it just wasn't an option. 


Luckily when my dad was here, he was able to fix the walls.  It already looks MUCH better and there isn't even any pain in there yet!  All I need to do is prime and paint!

I know these pictures look awful, but it will look 110% better when I am finished!
