You'll save a bundle.<br /><br />Wallpaper has never been really "popular" in Canada.

Glad your Step-Dad and DH are doing well.<br /><br />I love cream or pale pink on my walls as I love the fresh, open feeling those colours offer in the Winter months. Also seeing the beautiful colours of the Summer sunset on the walls is almost magical...<br /><br />All the best to you.<br /><br />HamitanaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-76728370468428223682012-08-28T09:04:30.363-04:002012-08-28T09:04:30.363-04:00F&B is INCREDIBLY expensive over here too.
