I want to do it now because I have the time. He wants me to wait until spring so we can open the windows because of the smell. (sigh) Your photos inspire me, though. I love the white chairs with the stained wood table. I have antique oak chairs about that color paired with a newer farm table that I plan to paint white. The opposite of what you've done. Seeing yours inspires me! I've removed so much wallpaper in the past and have hated every minute of it. Even though wallpaper is back in style I will not use it in my decor. I'd much rather paint -- easy to change. Good for you for getting so much accomplished in one month. And still finding time to crochet! xoA Joyful Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08604235087317891071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7391691472847407028.post-59537046821624031302017-02-02T08:26:49.676-06:002017-02-02T08:26:49.676-06:00Love the white chairs around the dark table!

You brought those chairs back to life!<br /><br />Way back in high school I took up crochet in home ec (remember that?) but never got good at it. The squares looked very much like yours, but I just used pink and white. Oh, I vote for keeping the squares on the table ;).<br /><br />Doreen@foxdenrdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09418636999038800443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7391691472847407028.post-22214855897774407892017-01-30T21:09:05.904-06:002017-01-30T21:09:05.904-06:00I just painted the dining-room-turned-library abou...I just painted the dining-room-turned-library about the color of that truck in your bathroom. I need some of that color to spread into the adjacent room, which is going to be the pale pink living room!<br /><br />Thank goodness that there is no wallpaper in our house. I've understood that if the paper was put up correctly, it wouldn't be difficult to remove. It involves extra steps, though, and when most people want a change, they want it yesterday! I think it is a sizing, or something, that must be adhered first. Since I've never put up wallpaper, I really don't know all the steps. Nowadays, there is wallpaper that can be put up and taken down easily. One company I've heard of is WallsNeedLove. It looks interesting, but I need to look at the site again.<br /><br />Love that you did your chairs. It certainly makes a cohesive bunch! Thank you for sharing your accomplishments with us!rushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384758362254647340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7391691472847407028.post-42621050699521202172017-01-30T20:54:25.899-06:002017-01-30T20:54:25.899-06:00Woo Hoo girlfriend.
