Landing Passage Wallpaper or Paint
Hi All,
Can I have some feedback please, We have big landing Passage area, it was wallpaper before now I taken the wall paper off and was wondering will it better to a) Wallpaper it up again b) Skim Plaster it and just paint over it. Now with option (b) the good thing is we can change colour as often as we like and be easy to redo it in future too, with wall papering it is going to be one big job again. I am sorry I known it is down to personal tastes but I be very grateful for any feedback. Thank you all |
