Tearing Down the House-part 1

Well, it is time to strip all the wall paper and pull up two floors.  This first picture is the first floor living room (right).  I can not find where the wiring from the first floor connects to the second floor.  I will have to strip ALL the walls to find the connection.  Only the living room lights work.  It has changed what I plan to do first.  Stripping all the wall paper is first.  Some rooms are easy (3 so far)  to strip, the room on the second floor left is a tuff one.  My shoulders are really sore.
This is the first floor middle room.  It was a snap to strip and the floor is beautiful.
 
This is the kitchen on the first floor left.  Nancy wants the floor to be ripped up and a white tile floor laid down. The wallpaper was so-so to take off.  The floor is sort hard to take off-but it is almost off.








This is the second floor far left room.  It is really tuff to get the wallpaper off.  But, I have kept at it all day.  The rest of the rooms are going to be tuff to strip too.  When I am finished stripping, I am going to prime all the bare wood walls.  It preserves the dollhouse and makes the wall paper stay on better.
I am working on stripping several rooms at a time.

Be back in a couple of weeks.
