Sneak peek at one of the wallpapers installed. We have three different color choices. I will reveal the others as more progress finishes. Hard furnishings and tile need to go in to make up the master plan!

Hi Simon, the coach flooring and decorating look awesome! Can’t wait to see the final products! Where did you purchase your wallpaper please and was it any different than what is used in a home (other than the backing paper)?


RE: Prepping for flooring and wall paper - BusNit - 02-02-2022

Hi Adrian, I found it locally at a store called the wall paper market. Paper is same as what’s used in a home. I’ve learned alot about the subject. Stay away from any paper that does not specifically say scrubbable/washable on the label as it may be too frail to last in close counters with one’s ass bumping up against it! Woven paper is much thicker and what Newell used in these years coaches. Much thicker and stronger. (has threads in it) The liner paper takes the brunt of temperature swings but I have noticed the walls in the bedroom expand and contract where the paper is smooth at one point in time and a few hours later there is a crease. Not much you can do as wood and metal move at different paces. Most of it is hidden with blinds and built-ins in my case.

Looks very nice

Thank you Ernie! If I could only find someone who does laminate work. No one wants to touch it around here. They only do new cabinets. That's the only holdback right now. I've made new covers for the refrigeration and hot air ducts yesterday despite dealing with a massive migraine.
