Elbow Grease

The previous owners of 332 Taylor Street had a unique sense of style - a fine example of this was how the living room was decorated. Firstly there is the Alpine Lake/Mountain mural, wallpapered to the wall- interesting to say the least (see picture in previous blog). Then there is the cemented stone work on the opposite wall, which was potentially used for a gas fireplace. We didn't like it - so yesterday and today (24-25th Sept) we got to work with a crow bar and mallet and removed it. Some serious manual labour required.

Cemented Stone Wall

Chris, face mask, crow bar, elbow grease

The stones were attached with cement onto wire- which was nailed into the wall - it took a lot of time to remove

Finished - a few holes were made in the drywall but that will all be redone - and a fake brick wall was uncovered - random
