I'm moving into a house on the first of march, (Yay upgrade!) but it has the most hideous old lady wallpaper. The landlords already gave us permission to redecorate "tastefully" so it's going to be gone. My question is, does anyone know the best method for removing wallpaper?

Lines:
The way you're supposed to. You basically steam and peel, steam and peel. They make machines for it, just don't know what they are called. People in the hardware store will know exactly what you need.

can't remember which home dec show i saw this on... but get a newspaper and hold the sheets up to the wall and soak them with hot water using a spray bottle. the newspaper sheets should stick to the wall and keep the moisture in, making it easier to peel off the paper.
