    Thank you. Unfortunately I have to remove the wallpaper and that will remove the foil. Perhaps I can leave the rest and paint over it. Not sure what base layer I should use though. Than there is also that pink. I think that's some old surface prep. I'm scraping off what comes off easily and...

    Tips for removing a chandelier and replacing with a pendant

    Well the wife has finally gone and sold the chandelier in the bedroom. Which is great because it is ugly. These are mounted so different in USA. What's the simplest way really, as the connection will be under two layers of insulation and I'll probably have to lie down to get at it. Imagine...
