    We're not totally done yet since there's nothing hanging on the walls just yet, but we're getting there. We didn't do anything major, but it's amazing how much a little paint can change things.

    Congrats Medako! looks like you had a LOT of wallpaper to tear down! I feel for you, having gone through that myself. We are down to the last one (kids bathroom).
    Hilarious that your son is running full speed around that empty room!

    It looks so much fresher with all that wallpaper down. I love the paint colors. We had quite a bit of wallpaper to take down and while I hated doing it, it was so worth it!

    This house was a foreclosure, and a complete disaster when we bought it. We tore up all the carpet, put down cherry hardwood floors, tore down wallpaper, repaired walls, painted, and replaced all light fixtures, outlets, and switches.

    Sorry, I haven't been back to this thread in awhile. I'll have to take some pictures, as DH started this a few weekends ago. I also have to get his receipts and figure out price per sq ft based of of what he thinks he is going to need, since it will probably be another month till we finish.

    Off the top of my head I think the room is going to be apx 22' x 12' but one section will be a little more narrow because of a bump out for a hallway and some built-ins. I know that when I mentioned it to a contractor we were interviewing, he mentioned finishing it off for $18k, so apx $68 a sq ft.
