Our old house was built in the 1920's and some "interesting" homeowners decided that instead of stripping wallpaper they would just wallpaper over the old. We stripped about 6 layers (of ugly) wall paper in the dining room and kitchen. :-)AmeliaBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11861919146758680118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15599377.post-70507545494468309152008-02-10T18:51:00.000-05:002008-02-10T18:51:00.000-05:00I love that green bench and the pillow on it!

I, too, spent very little (some red candles, a red glass vase, a small rug for inside the front door). I figure next month I'll "go green" in honor of St. Patrick and springtime. I LOVE your bench, and just got a hanker to paint the old, inexpensive deacon's bench in my own entryway, and I quite like your dill green.
