Another Brick in the Wall

We had to buy another couch for the basement. The futon only last 3 years. Actually, it didn't last that long; should've already been thrown out. Anyway, our new couch is getting delivered tomorrow and it is close to the shade of the wall color (which I didn't really want) but it was the only one that would really work with the room etc. Solution: wallpaper one wall that the couch will be next to and leave the rest painted. I think it just might work and it wasn't bad to work with. We (me and my 78 year old mother) found the paper heavy when wet so we cut the pieces to do half the wall. I know it is recommended that you cut all of your pieces first etc (I googled it..lol) but neither one of us was hell bent on following the instructions (I am awful with them - I must admit).
