Phase 2- Prepping the Walls

In case you wer considering it...NEVER EVER wallpaper anything...EVER! We had 30 year old wallpaper applied directly to dry wall. Guess what! The top layer of dDrywall is made of paper. When you score and spray down the wallpaper with the glue loosening stuff it also dampens drywall underneath. And just think about what happenes to wet paper.
Needless to say, we spent several days sanding, muddiing, sanding, mudding, sanding, and spakling the walls. It also took two coats of primer because the bare drywall just suck up the first application. You coundn't even tell we had done anything. We did get the boys to help. The helped prep the piece od drywall for fixing the now messing medicine cabinet hole. They also helped paint.
James did this (lucky his bedroom is across the hall from the bathroom.)
