This week is a great week to watch and learn for all our DIY fans out there. As we restore our Victorian we tackle hanging a drop repeat wallpaper around a room that is neither level nor plumb and show you that you can do it too! Laine says "geography" twice when she means "geology",but that's just what happens when you spend 16 hours in one day and stay up until 2:30 am hanging wallpaper. We also share some tips and tricks on making sure your newly hung wallpaper stays looking new for as long as possible when you are dealing with plaster walls in an old home.
Historic homes can present a number of intimidating projects, wallpaper being one, properly wired and functioning light fixtures is another. Laine will walk you step by step through re-wiring some turn of the 20th century fixtures that can shine like new again. Think you can't rewire a fixture? Watch and learn! We get two beauties working like new...because old is the new new!
And what 115 year old lady doesn't need at least a little bit ofa face-lift? This Victorian Cottage is getting her's started by getting a new old front door-one far more appropriate than the 50's psuedo colonial style she has now. The door was selected last week, and this week the paint stripping and detail work begins!
Another long, hard week of DIY home restoration done, and one step closer to this historic home shining like she did when she was built!
