I have just moved to my new flat - a big thank you to all those who helped me with my decorating questions in my old house - it sold and I'm ready to start again (sigh)
There is a lot to do, but by far the most pressing is the living room wallpaper
-its old vinyl covered in what looks like soot marks and painted in places.
I'm pulling off the vinyl layer and wondering if the advice on makeover TV shows really works, can I just paint the layer of paper underneath?
I suspect not, but they say it so often and the vinyl layer is coming off and leaving a pretty smooth even layer underneath
