Ugh. Scraping off adhesive residue is probably one of my least favorite things to do. It probably took me 45 minutes to get it off the fold-down portion.
Bye-bye paper. :( It's pretty and it has velvet embellishments but it was peeling and brittle. It took even longer to get it off and then get started on THAT adhesive. Interestingly enough, there was a tiny scrap of newspaper stuck under the paper - May 31, 1969! So at least I now have some idea when this desk was originally purchased. Hooray!
interesting to think about the history of each piece of furniture :)
