    I stripped wallpaper at our old house, only to find that they hadn't primed the drywall board first. My solution, I covered that wall with a batik fabric. It was GORGEOUS! The people who bought the house wanted me to come back and help them do the decorating. :)

    What a great idea. Used to do it with wall paper when I papered, but just paint now. Thanks

    Lol I did this when my kids were all little. We lived in a trailer house and I got sick and tired of looking at the dark panel walls. so I took that down and then I used sheets and put them on the walls like they were wall paper, covered the switchplates with the same fabric. I got alot of compliments on that. It did look pretty cool.lol
