So, more or less, the master bath project is done. It was a long weekend goal to finish it, and, well, we got it done by Wednesday. It just kept going and going. So, the moral of this is I haven't yet done a good thorough cleaning of the bathroom, and once I do that this weekend I'll post some pictures. Taking down wallpaper is perhaps the messiest thing I've ever been part of - no matter how dilligent you try to be with picking up as you go, there are little bits of paper stuck everywhere.
Anyway, we're VERY proud of how it turned out!
During all of the wallpaper removal, we came to refer to the previous owner as Effing Brian. Because we get the feeling that Effing Brian liked to do a lot of stuff in the house himself, and let me tell ya, it was painfully obvious EB did the wallpaper himself. And didn't do it right, at that. It was hard work taking it all down, but it did make it a little better to curse his name and blame it on someone who wasn't there to defend himself. Stupid Brian.
Wanna hear some other wierdness from Effing Brian? During the walk through, we noticed one of the upstairs bedrooms had the doorknob on backwards, like with the lock on the outside. Uhhhh, Veird. And, along those same lines, EVERY door has a locking knob in the house, INCLUDING the pantry & coat closet. Seriously? The pantry? That's all I can think of actually right now. Scott also says he liked to strip out screws. God, hate that Brian.

LMAO - that's the same thing we call the previous owner of our house! Except change effing to the actual F-word and Brian to Pepper Keenan - for reals :)
your kids are going to lock themselves in the closets or pantry. Or lock YOU in the room with the outside lock. You better change those knobs!
