Weekend Project: New floor

Monday, May 4, 2009



After living with a carpeted office for two years, Jon finally ripped it out and we converted it to IKEA laminate flooring. This new floor is much better suited to life with two kitties with minds of their own!

The whole process was fairly painless. We managed to get the floor all laid out within two hours.

Then we had to make an emergency trip to Lowe's for some new quarter round molding because of gaps next to the wall.





Jon finished up the project yesterday afternoon and now we're waiting for the custom door to be built before we can call this room finished!
