What started as a day of pulling what felt like a million nails out of the old farmhouse quickly turned into more demo than I planned. I opened up more of the future primary bedroom, uncovered some old floral wallpaper that I’m definitely saving, and started getting a much better feel for the new bedroom and bathroom layout. Meanwhile, we cleaned up all the tree debris outside and said goodbye to one more black walnut tree.

My hubby offers a pro tip. Keep a old door or 2. Get a couple.of saw horses and use the door to make a work table. Lots of people will do this with plywood, but the door is more rigid and makes a better table.
Look at you rockin’ those work boots Robbie! 🥾 🥾 🛠️ 🏡❤️
I dug around and did some research. That wallpaper is from the 1930’s!!! I found very similar patterns but not the exact one you have. Great find!!
As always, you are such a hard worker and best of all you smile through it every day. You guys are an amazing team!
Great wallpaper find! Love a little treasure hidden. I think it might be earlier like 40’s or 50’s. You are doing a great job! Do you all have a tool wish list for things you need?
You and Brent are rock stars! Hang in there. It will all be worth it. ❤
Image search shows the wallpaper you found "Novelty Circus" or "County Fair" storybook nursery theme, was widely manufactured during the 1940s and 1950s. If the paper is a premium California brand like Stockwell or Van Luit rather than a mass-market Midwestern brand, it means it was likely hand-screen printed rather than surface-machine printed. It might have been manufactured by Albert Van Luit & Co. (Los Angeles, CA)The Connection: Albert Van Luit established his factory in Los Angeles in the 1940s and became internationally renowned for high-end wallcoverings.The Style: While famous for large scenic murals, Van Luit also manufactured highly stylized repeat patterns. A defining characteristic of Van Luit papers from the 1950s was the use of matte background ground-coats overlaid with rich, slightly textured, chalky gouache inks—which perfectly mirrors the raised, hand-painted look of the red tent and wheel elements on your wall.
