We are so glad to be able to check this one off of the Casa Wilkerson to-do list. As a matter of fact, the walls in the entire living area are 100% complete!

Wahoo!

Now comes the time to trim it up! Thanks so much to all friends—and family—that left helpful hints for painting trim on yesterday’s post. We are ready to get down to serious business with a bucket of white paint.

WHOA! I am very impressed! It looks like the ugly wallpaper was never even there!

Thanks, Katlyn! After hearing horror stories about removing wallpaper, I think we were pretty lucky.

Hey DE! Thanks for stopping by! Taking down the wallpaper was a scary scene but definitely worth it.

Your blog is pretty much the bee's knees and I can't wait to see what you whip up next!

What brand and color is the paint you used? I think the same color would looks great in my guest room. Thnx

Hi Caroline! For the living & dining rooms, we used Napery by Sherwin Williams.

We went back and forth on colors for a while but are so happy that we decided on Napery. Hope this helps!

Can you believe it?! As Reators, Eric & I see hundreds of houses week in and week out but never before have we encountered wallpaper quite like this.
