Floored in Every Sense!

By Tammy

Goodbye creamy carpet, Snowflake to be exact! Nine years you have served our family well, but my Himalayan and 6-year old have put you to the test. And don't count mom and dad out. We've brought our fair share of allergens in with yard maintenance and loving the outdoors. Farewell sneezing.

Drum roll, please… I am happy to report that the living room and secondary hallway, along with a closet, are now complete (see my Holiday post for a refresh). Take a look at a few of the remodel pics.

Okay, yes you might say, “Tammy, the walls are matchy-matchy with your new floor.” Problem-solved! Stay tuned to “Living with Color” in the coming weeks. Lets just say, the remodel continues (can you see the to-do list piling up?). I like to say “inspiration” has taken hold. Has that happened to you during your remodel? Please share your inspirations too!

Note of caution: It is realistic to run into snags along the way, so plan your remodel with some leeway. Plan for your careers, children activities, and holidays, to name a few (even the Super Bowl) to all dip into your valuable time. And among all, don’t sweat the small stuff. It all gets finished in due time.

  2. How exciting! That is one thing that we want to do in our home too, replace the carpet with hardwood! Yours looks great. Can't wait to see more of it.

  3. We are enjoying the new floors more and more each day. It's funny how our brains work - out-of-sight out-of-mind (think dust bunnies galore)!
