Weekend Project: New floor



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!

    Wow, it looks awesome! I think we have similar paint color in our bedroom.
    We did a kitchen floor last Summer. I was so happy!

    Looks fanatastic! I love the green. We did that flooring in our old apt and I loved it. Perfect for pets, and super easy to care for. your hubby must be really excited.
