We have a pirate kitty too so it was a good excuse for the 9 months we lived with this bathroom. Annie needed to feel the new house was safe for her pirate kitty ways.

I sprayed DIF all over the bathroom. I really saturated the paper until to I could tell it was visibly wet with the DIF gel. The bottle says to wait 15 – 20 minutes for it work so I sat down and watched some TV to take a break. Then I went on a wallpaper removing frenzy.
Two hours later I was left with this. I celebrated by having a beer.
Another hour later after using some good old elbow grease and some rags, I cleaned off all the leftover DIF and paper scraps that were stuck. I also cleaned the bathroom from top to bottom. Is it crazy that I partly feel sad the wallpaper is gone? It made me laugh and it was the best way to describe the room.
it looks awesome now! but your post totally had me cracking up- your cat photo is awesome. and wow that wallpaper was interesting!
Wow. I’m going to miss that paper, even though I only saw it once 🙂 Huge project, but what a difference it makes in the room.
It’s amazing the difference with it gone! Much better.
Sometimes I wonder with things like these… do you think they regretted it once they got it on the walls and just couldn’t admit it enough to take it down?
Looks great! You are brave tackling that wallpaper. I’m pretending mine doesn’t exist.
Arrrrr! Your bathroom looks much better, Matey!
(That was my pirate impression).
Don’t you just hate removing wallpaper?

I know how good it feels to have wallpaper removed as I’ve done it myself, but if it was pirate wallpaper I had gotten rid of I think it would be cause for a major celebration!

Never in my life have I seen pirate ship wallpaper! I have to admit that I like it in a kitschy kinda way. 😛 haha
