in Trying to Get Pregnant

just wanted to say I hate wallpaper......not putting it up but removing it....never had to put it up and hope I never have to....removing it is just a pain as it is....

so our bathroom looks like a Tasmanian Devil went through it ....and theres a hole in the dry wall now because DH tried to remove a handle bar but ended up ripping it out of the wall..ugh..

k..vent over

    I too HATE wallpaper, but we discovered a steamer and a large putty knife does wonders. Steam the paper and scrape off, usually comes right up. Unless it's that damn plastic-y wall paper, gotta rip the top layer off first, then steam off the understuff and scrape away. ugh.

    That sucks! Only thing I can think of is to try and use hot water when spraying. Best of Luck! I bet it will look beautiful when you're done with it!

    I feel your pain! My parents remodeled their kitchen last month and to save some money on the contractor they took down their own wallpaper, so I went over to help. Talk about a PITA!!! My dad had bought stuff to spray on to help loosen the glue, it worked pretty well if you sprayed it on and let it sit for a few minutes. Good luck finishing your bathroom!

    I'm sorry! That sucks. I hate having any room in our house in disarray. I hope the rest of the project goes by quickly and smooth and you get your bathroom back to normal.

    if you don't want to use any chemicals, hot water and vinegar can loosen the glue pretty effectively. i've used this method before with success.

    If you don't have a steamer you can make due with an iron.... use a damp towel and the iron set on steam.... it takes a little longer but can save you from putting holes in the dry wall!!!
