    Folks,

    I got some special border wallpaper that I'd like to put up in our bathroom. Problem is that I SUCK at putting it up (tried it before in a different house) and need some help. I'd really like to surprise C6 with its being done without her knowing anything about it. She leaves to teach at 7:45 and back at 530 M-F, so there's some time to put it up.

    As much as I appreciate advice, I'm actually looking for supervision/help. I can't pay much.

    Can anyone help? PM me....

    I would offer you assistance on that but am probably in the same boat as you... I would think there are a few wallpaper guru's here...:cheers: good luck

    Is it preglued border? That you just wet down? Is it going around the ceiling? I did my own bathroom years ago, it looks good.

    Hat,

    I can help. Need advance notice of day and time so I can have help on the home front. Been doing stuff like this forever. While Cleo asked about glue on the back, I am a firm believer, especially in the bathroom, that paste is put on the back.

    We will need a card table, big sponge, 12" ruler, thick paint brush to put the paste on with and paste. I have a card table that I can bring.....actually I have everything but the paste, which can be purchased at WalMart or hardware stores.

    No payment needed as this is just a friend/neighbor helping another friend/neighbor. This should not take long to put up. Heck, I've even copied pieces of a shower curtain or comforter and used those pieces as the border in a room. Just giving you ideas and understanding as to my knowledge in this area of decorating.

    Folks,
    thanks for the help. I got a few PM's that offered help and accepted one of those. You guys rock. I'm going to delete this thread so Curious6 doesn't see it.
