The prompt for Linda G Hill’s stream of consciousness post this week is wallpaper.

While my PA Frances was on her two weeks holidays, she wallpapered her whole house. She was very proud of the fact that she single handedly did it by herself.

I don’t have any wallpaper in my house. All of my walls are painted, and a few of them have tiles on them.

When I was a kid we had wallpaper all over our house. In my bedroom there was wallpaper with patterns on it.

It was a huge dose trying to hang it, I remember mom would be doing it, and she’d have to mix paste, and put the paste onto the wallpaper before hanging it.

It was a big mess. She’d be totally stressed out.

I think its kind of rare now for people to wallpaper their house. I know its still sold, but I don’t think too many people buy it nowadays.

      Both my mum and dad decorated when I was a kid, they equally did things I guess but my dad always complained 💕

    For a second, we contemplated wallpapering our house but the designs were awful! Really flashy massive prints and barely any plain colours. We eventually decided on paint and it’s awesome. Himself wallpapered the back of a in-built bookshelf and he complained the whole time and was delighted that we didn’t choose to do all the rooms in wallpaper! Kudos to your PA for doing it – it’s a thankless job. I’m with you though, no way to wall paper.

      Of course he complained, men always complain about decorating actually about doing any job around the house 😀💕
