We are working on giving the basement some 70's vibes and a big step towards that was installing this fun yellow and orange floral wallpaper!
This project has been a wish for quite some time and earlier this year I placed the wallpaper order. When it finally arrived we had to get to work prepping the wood paneling. We filled all the grooves, smoothed out the surface the best we could, then primed the wall to make sure no brown peeked through. This is the wall after the first layer of filler.
While hanging the wallpaper I got very frustrated aligning the flowers and could only do a few panels at a time so I could calm down. There are some places that the flowers don't perfectly align, but when you step back the wall looks pretty good. I'm pretty happy with how the basement is looking so far. The next little project is painting the window trim on the wall to the left. I think that middle orange color will look quite nice!
