    Stupid wobbly table...

    Do you mean pack the place where the legs attach?? If so, I've tried this but you literally can't pack it enough without it being totally totally totally obvious and incredibly ugly. There's too much variation. This is what I'm asking about - how to pack the bottom of the table - how do I do...

    Stupid wobbly table...

    Thanks for the ideas. They are hairpin legs so no adjustability and I kinda need to stick with them because I paid for them and they're part of 'the look' - and the tables match each other. The packing I tried but they're so out of kilter that the packing is very very visually obvious and it...

Item description states something like "this is made from natural materials and as such there may be knots, greening of the wood and rough...

    I guarantee there will a. Be no lining paper and 2. These walls too will also not have been sealed after their being plastered. I painted over the paper with silk vinyl so I'll have to see how easily it comes off. Cheers.

    Poopy. The bathroom can wait for a bit then; guess I'll be working the steam stripper at the weekend then! I must say, that does sound like the only solution that would give me confidence that the new paper would go on totally smooth. Thank you for your reply.

    Couple of decorating of walls questions

    Hi all Couple of questions, the first one about papering. I had wallpaper on which was white background and huge black stylised flowers. The texture of the wallpaper is that it wasn't flock or anything like that, it was flat, but there is a weave pattern and before I put up new wallpaper...
