FLOORS COMPLETE!!

That's a victory in my book...and to be honest after all the time it took and all the details I absolutely love the final product! I choose the glossier option as the final finish and they just shine!!! Color and hue are exactly what I was looking for, and it just makes the house feel alive. Here are some additional photos of the process. First finish layer was a high-gloss to which the final satin finish was applied to the top.

Here is the finished images. Take a look and let me know what you think. Again, I'm very pleased at how the floors came out.

Work at other areas continue to move forward. We had some helping visitors this last weekend to complete a few projects. I've removed the terrible plumbing and got new lines running from the utility room to the kitchen sink...actually hidden this time. New holes were drilled and PEX lines were ran.

Ohh one more thing,

Craigslist pulls through again! Found a sweet deal on a new dining table. A beautiful 6 foot table with hidden leaves to extend it to nearly 10 feet! Not only is it in great shape and very cool, Danish certified, and actual wood, It matches with all of our stripped mahogany very well! It's a great feeling to start placing items in the house now that the floor is done.

Posts coming about starting island, installing appliances, and all the other details.

Happy weekend everyone, I'll be working!
