. . . poof! it's gone . . .

. . . i've tried lots of different methods

over the years . . .

•fabric softener

•electric steamer

•slap on some drywall mud

•paper tiger, hot water & patience

. . . but the best idea so far

for getting rid of

pesky, unwanted wallpaper? . . .

. . . josh squared . . .

. . . josh, my nephew . . .

. . . and josh, his uncle . . .

{also uncles ammon and lamoni ~ i wish i'd taken their picture}

. . . and bead board . . .

. . . lots of bead board . . .

. . . i've been in awe

of the craftsmanship . . .

. . . they've faced

the tub and shower enclosures . . .

. . . they've wrapped

every {unsquare} corner . . .

. . . they've filled and sanded

every nail hole and seam . . .

. . . now let's just hope my

{less-than-professional}

painting skills don't mess up

their beautiful work . . .
