Master Bedroom Floor

Sanded the floor of the master bedroom this weekend. Looks much better and didn't take nearly as much sanding as some of the other floors in the house. It will be stained dark to match all the other flooring. We also painted one wall to try out the color and think it's gonna be a keeper - Exotic Eggplant by Behr.

Kitchen Floor

We have taken up I believe 5 layers of flooring in this kitchen. I will detail all those in a forthcoming post. What we are left with is the original wood flooring, loaded up with staples, nails, glue and paper left over from the tile backing. We have literally removed hundreds of staples by hand. The glue and paper came up fairly well with a vinegar/water solution and putty knives. But this is still a rough floor in need of some serious work.

Note the paint line on the baseboard in the background. That's how much floor has come up!


 An industrial sander is on tap for next weekend. Pics to come!
