Ashton's New Room

Hello. Today I am going to tell you about what we did to Ashton's new room.

So last night we made renovations to Ashton's new room. So first we ripped off most of the wall paper that was around the top of my parent's old room. It was really fun. Ashton kept ripping of entire stripes and I was too short so I just got like the bottom half of them off. It was still really fun destroying a room.



Next we took out the border molding around the perimeter of the room. Well, sort of. We got the baseboard out of the closet out but not the rest of the room. Ashton accidentally made a hole in the wall with the crow bar. We were going to do the rest of the rooms borders but Alex went to bed so mom said no more loud tools.



After we got the borders out we cut the carpet in half. Then we rolled it up and pulled it from the tacks. It was super fun to rip it out. Mom and I did the first half and Ashton and mom did the second half. Then they did the foam underneath. That was pretty easy. I loved ripping out that old carpet.



Now the room just has draping wallpaper and boards on the floors. Mom is going to get wallpaper remover and hard wood flooring in a while.
