As a matter of fact, I could not even think of how to use the tractor for this--maybe carry the rolls of wallpaper in the bucket, but I don't think the loader would have made it in through the doorway. :laughing:

So yesterday, the wife and I put up some wallpaper in the guest bathroom as an accent.

It is a deerskin print.

I know that this is no one near any of the other projects going on right now, but when it is 100 with a HHI of 108, you look for what you can. ;)

You should know we are pretty fearless in paint and wallpaper choices. We generally change the wall colors every few years. We find it to be an inexpensive way to change the look/feel of a room.

It looks good but I am amazed that you got the better half to go along with it. Unless she is real hunter in the family. :D

Nice job ... just curious, how long did it take to hang the paper?

Took me about 2 hours. This paper had a different application method than I have ever used before. It was "paste the walls", so instead of apply the paste to the paper and "booking" the paper for 10 minutes, you just brushed the paste on the walls and slapped the paper up. It was a much quicker process than the other ways.

That looks great! I like the 3-D look. Perhaps not if I was a little tipsy though. It induces vertigo. :)

So this is a hunting lodge?

Neither of us are the hunters, but I did have some leverage considering the other day I cam in to find dirty horse bits in the kitchen sink

Better horse bits in the kitchen sink than having your underware washed with horse blankets in the family laundry.

It must have taken several Bambis to cover that room. Unless I miss my guess, only fawn are speckled like that. You'd never get away with it in California. :laughing:
