Hidden Wallpaper

"Hidden Wallpaper" Strip of wallpaper found beneath a piece of cheap molding

The whole porch is made of shoddy stuff and bizarre arrangements. It took weeks just to find the light switch, which was eventually found when we removed an enigmatic electrical plate and found you could reach the light switch by reaching through the exposed hole and groping for the switch behind the wall.

Why would somebody put up a strip of wallpaper and then put crap molding over it?

Dealing with the age and quirks of the house can be very irritating. But the mystery of strange arrangements, decor, or objects that show up at least can make it interesting to talk about later. We leave some of the strange stuff up just to show visitors.
