I'm living for this energy right now
yay! glad you're here!! Thank you
Right lol I just seen your wall post and we're both on the same page
Wow, what a great job the wallpaper guy did, that’s so easy to take down, Wobble
I just removed my wallpaper in the blink of an eye. I sprayed "Scrubbing Bubbles" bathroom cleaner on it, it did not drip and soaked into the paper. The first layer came off almost immediately and I sprayed again the brown layer underneath and then it came off almost immediately. Easy peasy!!!!
Omg thank you!!! I had issue removing and was about to give up. Then I saw your comment. I happened to have unused scrubbing bubbles 😭
Brooooo a year later and I’m so happy you posted this, thanks man🤝
Please where do you get the scruble bubble n how much
It didn’t work for me 😢
@@akinyemiakinbodundefrankli7890. I used hot water in an electric sprayer. Worked just fine.
Was not expecting so much ENERGY when I was looking for videos on how to remove wallpaper 😂 You are awesome and have a great sense of humor!
haha yay! Glad you liked it !!
Beautiful soul
Deserves beauty in everything you do
...and a killer ass!
OK after watching about 10 different videos on removing wallpaper yours was the most fun. I do think however that scoring the wallpaper to get the solution To soak in is really a must. I tried pulling my wallpaper off dry and it came off in little tiny pieces. Thank you for having sense of humor and an entertaining video.
You got me at “ And I am not a professional” 😂 that is why I am watching your video! Never saw a remodeling video so fun! 🎶🎶🎶
Love your personality. Makes watching an otherwise boring video bearable.
Yay, thank you!
Thoroughly entertaining. Thank you ma’am 🤣
Love your sense of humor! - running to the store now to get my fabric softener.
Thank you Alex, I had never tried to remove wallpaper before and I watched a few videos here and your tip with the fabric softener was brilliant. I live in Las Vegas and the softener really helped keep things wet. Took a 8 hour job and turned it into a 3. And yes it did smell good and the home owner gave me a $120 tip because he was so happy with the job. I guess I owe you lunch the next time you're in Vegas 😘
So fun & funny! Thank you for adding humor to the job! And writing the steps on the dang wallpaper is genius.
After your video, we bought the supplies, switched on the fun, & lucky for us… peeling off the 14 yo painted-over wallpaper was easy, fast & so gratifying! Next video, how to properly patch & texturize bathroom walls. 👍🏼
Excellent !! This whole process is simple and effective. Wish I knew this earlier!! I told my kids that they had to do the wobble dance else it won’t work 😂
Thank you Alex !!
lol it's the key! You're welcome... glad you found it helpful
Love the video and moves! Worked like a charm for the old duck wall paper I had to remove and now onto the other two duckie bathrooms. Thank you so much Alex!
Thanks! Glad it helped!
You need a TV show - too much fun. And informative. 🎉
She has the personality and talent to do a show. I'd watch it.
This Is One Flawless Woman And I’m not Internet Type just trying to Remove Wallpaper Whomever He Is He’s a Lucky Man 🔥🔥🔥🔥
He's divorced. 😂
Thank you for the super helpful (and funny) video! We were close to hiring someone because of the horror stories I heard about wallpaper removal but after seeing this video we gave it a try. The technique worked great and the process was so much less painful than I was expecting! :)
yay so happy to hear it worked for you!! and thanks for watching
Do you use hot washer or cold water for it? Out of curiosity.
I literally LOVE YOU!!! i was dreading removing 40 yr old wallpaper and you made it look fun and easy---THANK YOU
Aww so glad you found it helpful! Thank you!!
Omg! I had to watch this multiple times just to see how to take wallpaper off. All I could do is just watch you. You are amazing. 👏 👏
Thank you so much!!
Dude! My mom put this wall paper up in the 1990s! 😂 she put in burgundy Formica counters and she LOVED the makeover 😂
You made the wallpaper removal look fun.. Now I’m eager to begin my wallpaper replacement project. Thanks.🤩☀️👍
so glad! And you're welcome!!
This video was everything I needed today. I just moved into a house where the owners were heavy smokers for 40 years and this wallpaper needs to go!
Awesome awesome funny and informative video
I don't normally comment but you rock with the sense of humor
thank you so much!
Same Idea just a slightly different technique. I use a 1-gallon garden sprayer filled with hot water and a squirt of liquid dish soap. The soap breaks the surface tension of the water allowing it to soak in faster. Using a hand sprayer like you did and my hand began to cramp up after about 5 minutes of spraying.. Guess Im just a weakling!
Thanks for sharing!
Best wallpaper video yet. Thanks.
You seem to be as in Greek mythology presiding over song and poetry and the arts and sciences the Greek Muse of home-remodeling. ... a source of inspiration especially : a guiding genius.
aww thank you so much!!
After quickly assessing other video titles , I knew I could not go wrong with a female instructor. Sorry, that was so sexist..but I knew a woman would find a reliable, quick, no hassle method. Thank you... soooo entertaining. Have you filmed tutorials before? I’m definitely doing it myself.
Glad you liked it! :)
Great video!!! I have watched many and was hesitant about trying to do this myself but now I am totally going to do it!!! You are awesome. I loved this video. Very informative and entertaining.
Glad it was helpful! Good luck!!
LOL waaaay easier than I was fearing. Except for the wobbling.
OMG - I have wallpaper so similar in the master bdrm of our newly purchased home. I'm attacking it tomorrow. Thanks for the motivation!
You make my day ... I love your easy & fun way to peel wallpapers also nice moves!!
Hahahahaa I love your moves!!! And the work you've done of course
Btw, the editing was very good on this video. Kudos to you.
Thanks!
I totally enjoyed your video, your tutorial on the dancing was great🤣...and thanks for your tips on the wallpaper removal!!!
Yay! Thank you!
Lord, this was extremely helpful!
Thank you!
Man i'm about to do some wallpaper stripping on a pretty big house and didn't know where to start, i thought i needed all those chemicals and tools. Looks like i was really over thinking it. Thank you for these tips.
The wobbling just made the video better😂 will definitely try this 👍 thanks!
You are hilarious!! Enjoyed this immensely. And best of all, it works!!!
Very Nice , I will attempt to do this - I will need to leave the wobble off - I do not have the proper equipment.
Your method looks effective and pretty straight forward -- I will be back for more - Great Post - Thank You !
haha thank you so much!
You’re amazing. Loving the wobble!
I did it , and it worked !!!! Guest Bath paint refresh, done..
woo hoo! yay!!
Thanks for saving me a bunch of money, time, energy and storage space 💕
I hope the wallpaper in my home would be this easy to remove, thank you for the video!!
all i can say is thanku......all the men said do this do that, oh its gonna be tough, oh u should get a professional.......then i came across u... thank u for being honest and i can begin in my little bungalow....xx
I’m so glad you found this helpful! Enjoy your bungalow ❤️
Nice vid👀💯. You make me want to remove wall paper. It's the energy for me.
You are so much better than I am at the Wedding Dance... But I am gonna do this and this is the FIRST video regarding this subject that came up. I am saving this and I'm gonna do it just like you said... Sah-weet! Thank you! #trailer #makeotbetter #portlandmetroarea
But after you peel off that last layer you are left with sticky gooey residue. What do you do with that? I’m currently scrubbing the heck out of the wall and scraping at it with a stiff chisel tool lmao. This is too much work 😫
It is a lot of work! Luckily most of the stickiness comes off on its own with the method. But a little scrubbing, as you're doing, helps with the rest! good luck!!
Lol! Love your energy! I’m going to remove some wallpaper tomorrow (I know; on Thanksgiving day 😬😬😬) at our new home! 🎉🎉
I don't even have wallpaper, why did I just watch this at 2:30am?
the energy is giving The Office and i’m living
It was great....How do you reach the wallpaper on the ceiling by the steps?
Lol love the energy. Thank you for the info!! Gonna give it a try
Alex you are an absolute BEAST!
haha thanks !
Great video. Thanks! Some people suggest a vinegar combo. Have you ever tried that before trying the fabric softener potion? Wondering if you prefer one to the other?
Thank You! I have heard all the horror stories and seen all the stuff at the store. This looks so much easier than imagined. Looking forward to starting this next new project. Any particular brand of fabric softener? Thanks again.
Thank you for the video. Question...did u have to sand the wall down before painting...if you painted?
She is good at her task.
This is awesome! Thanks for this tip! Life saver for sure!
No problem!
Love this video. Tearing down wallpaper now. Probably won't have as much fun as you but hey.
Good video, what was it about?
Lol I like her. She explained it all, very DIY friendly and was funny. I'm done. I am now a fan😄👍🏾
Thank you so much 🤗
Loved this! I'm just wondering if it will come off just as well with only water? 🤔 Has anyone used just water?
If it's warm and not super stuck on there... probably
Why does it feels like I’m watching The Office lol thank you so much it definitely worked!!!
this is so fun to watch, I am gonna subscribe... hehehe, love that dance... and I actually did not know that the brown layer was a glue layer. next week I am gonna do this with my home
Your energy is 10/10
This really helpful I'm redoing or renovating my bedroom and it gas horrible pink wallpaper so I wanna remove it, so tysm!!
Thank you so much! Good luck!
awesome trattoria!!!!! and money saving to boot, you're awesome girl!
Bruh that Hamilton reference caught me by surprise
lol surprise!
Great job 😆.. I was looking for a wall paper removal instruction videos then you come up from haven 😆
Awesome! Thank you!
Girl you are a whole vibe
What do you do with vinyl coated wall paper. The "first layer" doesn't just peel off with a scraper...
protip: if you dont have a pressure sprayer, use a paint roller and paint tray from the dollar store to save a few bucks. Might be a bit more messy but it will get the job done just as well!
and use a plastic scraper rather than a metal one to avoid scratching your wall if you're hoping to not have to repaint said wall
Hi there, thanks for sharing this video, do you put 3/4 hot water into 1/4 Fabric softener, right. I used cold water mix with softener, it works, but not work well like you showed in the video, thank you.
Thanks for the tips BTW loved your moves as well- haha....
Great video! The wall blushed 😂
Haha thanks so much!
Such an underrated channel!!
aww thank you so much!!
I’m going to ‘re-paper’ with an assortment of old, unique book pages…so do I need to remove that bottom layer?? 🤔 TY
How long did it take to remove it all? It looks great!
Any ideas Alex for a wallpaper that is not very absorbent on the top layer? It seems to repel water....Bill
This so worked for mine all off thank you for the tip and I think the softener works smells really good😁🙏
Loved the video 😂 But what I’m wondering is why your wallpaper is coming off in sheets and mine is coming off in crumbs 🥴🥴😭
Oh no! It was probably not applied properly. Did you try the fabric softener trick? It helps for sure...
@@AlexWehrley I did... I may try next time with a scorer and warm water
HI Alex, was this done on drywall or brick? We have just bought a house with drywall and the wallpaper is about 30 years old so it's been stuck on for absolute ages. Wondering if this technique will work just as well for that? Thanks!
Love the extra bonus entertainment mixed in with the informative info! Get it girl. Now it’s time for me to rip down my wallpaper.
She's funny this little one. Put me in a good mood on this grey UK day.
Brilliant and very entertaining well done
She’s hilarious and informative 🤣🤣💙💙
Thank you!!
Great 👍😃 video. I'm going to give it a try.
Just used this technique on the weekend, was it ever easy and yes it smelled so good lol.
Tried this today and it was super easy! Thanks for this video!!
You're so welcome!
Totally works! Thanks for the tip ❤
Your adorable, funny and joy to watch you working.!,
hey! Thanks so much for the video ! Just wondering what to do with the glue underneath ? I’ve tried peeling off the yellow layer but there’s still glue underneath
Spray it with wallpaper stripper 4$ or warm water and vinegar. Let it soak in and than scrape off the old glue and wash with a sponge and bucket of warm water.
most of the stickiness comes off on its own with the method. But a little scrubbing, with a warm/wet cloth, helps with the rest! good luck!!
Came to see how to remove wallpaper and was even a little entertained. :)
Hahahaha...."the previous homeowner should have numbered the box correctly". There was a song in the 60's called "To dream the impossible dream".
Nice energy I like your videos it doesn't even seem like your trying to be funny I like that
thank you so much!
Tried this and it got the wallpaper film right on off . Amazing information
I subscribed just for the shadow high 5 and the dancing 🤣
yes! the most important part lol
@@AlexWehrley I agree 🖐️
So far so perfect 1st layer off!!!! Great!!!
Can i replace the fabric softener with smth else? I don't have fabric softener available rn :(
LOVE IT! was so fun to watch :D
Glad you enjoyed!
Thank you!! It worked perfectly.
Oh man... I need to learn how to "wobble" before I take on my wall paper! 😂😂😂
These videos are hilarious!
