2 days later and i still haven't pasted a single sheet. Forgot that i have to paint the window rims with pink, best to do this before papering as then any over runs will be hidden.
Also had a another change of plan so have bought more wallpaper now for downstairs. Was advised by my great mates on the forum that it is fine to wallpaper over an existing painted wall so long as i sand it lightly first to help it 'key in'. So now am waiting on 2 sheets of wallpaper, i'll keep you guessing as to what they are like. Also, some strips of wood which i aim to use for making beams in the ceilings. And, from a separate site i have ordered a sheet of acetate in stained glass design. I'm not sure about curtains on the windows being a tower and having just holes in the walls so i will fit these which will be in keeping with the general theme of gothic. Then if i like them i may fit curtains later.
So plan of action is as follows:
1. Touch up pink around window sills and edges of panels, avoiding magnets
2. Wallpaper upstairs with fairy and wood panelling
3. Buy stone flooring papers from DHE
4. Wallpaper upstairs when paper arrives
5. Fix floor paper when it arrives
6. Plan, stain, measure, cut and fix 'beams' to ceilings, sanding parts for authenticity
7. Plan lighting and mark walls for drilling holes
8. Build dolls house and glue together.
And to think i foolishly thought that would happen this weekend! So much to do but hey when you enjoy something you dont want it to end anyway.
