Today we worked for over eight hours on the house; peeling wallpaper and even painting over some of the remnant wallpaper. The paint job has been really draining of our time and energy because of the exorbitant amount of wallpaper on the walls!
We painted 90% of the living room and I painted one wall in the
bedroom that is attached to the bathroom. I plan to leave the three other walls with the current wallpaper in that room. Then, in the "office" bedroom, I am eiher painting one wall of finding a window cover to cover the small area around the french doors that is lacking wallpaper, as I am guessing that is how it was handeled before.
With these changes; preserving wallpaper in all three bedrooms, it is cutting down on time and costs of paint. Now for wallpaper peeling, we just have the kitchen and dining room to complete and then paint.
I started painting some of the dining room, just to see how it will look (and also to complete some of the painting needed).

We ran into some trouble in the dining room that we will need the owners to make decisions about before proceeding. It looks as if we have a LARGE amount of something that largely identifies with mold in the dining room; all over one wall and I cannot yet tell how much on the wall that has french doors. As we peel the wallpaper, more appears.

The house is really starting to look good. There is a nice flow with the paint job that directs the eye to the nicer features of the house, instead of from wall-to-wall. The colors that we chose are very soft and suttle; it sets the mood and gives this house a more softened look.
NEEDS: A Household Mold test and (likely) mold remediation, Possibly a few more gallons of paint ( approx. 3 gallons more), floor stain, floor sander, floor material or concrete stain for the "master bedroom/den" and hallway to the laundry area.
