What Were They Thinking!?

When we moved into this apartment last year, the old tenants didn't have to paint over any walls as part of the agreement.  So, our kitchen is bright red, the bathroom is blue, and the computer room is teal on three walls and striped on the fourth.

That teal is painted on textured wallpaper.

So this weekend we decided to take off the wallpaper.  It was peeling badly in one area anyway.  Apparently we should have left well enough alone, because look at what was painted on underneath.

It's a lot darker in person, and now we need to paint sooner than we realized!
