I used to think wallpaper was a weekend project until my hallway looked like a crime scene

Last fall I tried to hang a simple striped paper in my entryway, figured I could just slap it on like the YouTube videos show. I mixed the paste too thin, the first strip slid down the wall and tore, and I spent three hours trying to scrape off the glue with a putty knife. The whole thing ended with me calling my sister to help peel it all off while we laughed at the giant, sticky mess. Anyone have a good trick for getting dried paste off baseboards without taking the paint with it?

Try a damp sponge first, not a putty knife.

My last wallpaper attempt left more paste on me than the wall.
