So we just moved into another house in June and my whole purpose in life has been to make it look dazzling.  Well at least make it look cute.  Anyway, I decided that I hate the bathroom wallpaper so I got the idea to redo it.  First of all, no store has wallpaper.  I went to several before I got online and searched.  And the stores that used to have wallpaper were closed.  I guess online ordering is doing to wallpaper stores what Redbox has done to Blockbuster! 

Anyway, I finally found a store that had some wallpaper.  I purchased one double roll.  This was weeks ago.  I have had the best intentions since I bought it.  Well I finally decided to dig in and do it since I am planning a barb b que on Labor Day.  I started ripping off the paper only to find that pesky layer underneath that has to be scraped off.  Not in my budget this week to buy a bunch of stuff to remove the wallpaper so I made up my own stuff.  I got a spray bottle for 98 cents at Walmart, filled it with apple cider vinegar, water and a little dish soap and voila!  I rip off the top layer of paper and then spray my solution on the other stuff and let it soak.  Then I use my hand dandy scraper to scrape it off.  Most of is scraping off easy.  But there are a few spots that are being difficult. 

Unfortunately this is not going as fast as I had hoped but its going.
