Heidi's first project is to take down this old wallpaper and wood paneling (probably about 20 years old), see what's underneath and get the room ready for new paint. This weekend involved a tedious process of scraping to reveal very old, patchy plaster. Next week I'll do a skim coat of join compound as a first step toward painting. Here are this weekend's before and after pics. Some wood paneling had crumbling plaster underneath, so that's staying up until we come up with a plan--most likely that spot will need to be drywalled at this point. Next thing to go is that light/fan!
