I convince Tim that we really needed to get rid of the ugly trim that was stuck on the bottom of the walls in the master bedroom. I just didn't get it. They were dirty and I couldn't clean them and though the rectangles were similar size, I just didn't get what they were for or any design sense.
We really didn't know how they were attached or what kind of a mess we would have if they were removed...but they were ripped out and made ready for a bonfire!
Tim is a master with drywall and was able to mend the holes, bumps, and bruises that were left behind. And then we painted. We wanted something to complement the bright white trim and the name "Yosemite Sand" caught our attention – we couldn't resist getting it! We now have the rootinest, tootinest sumbith in Douglas!
A fresh coat of glossy white paint on the heat registers...
and new laminate flooring…
Don't you love the bright red underlayment padding!
Oh my aching knees! You'll have to wait for a final picture - more work to finish up: trim, heat registers and closets!

Wow! It looks great! I hope you think it was worth the aches.
It's looking really nice...
Last week, I've talked with my friend Suzy about flooring ideas for the old nursery room, which I'm converting to my daughter's bedroom. Suzy is a flooring consultant in New Zealand and I've always asked her for advise whenever we are renovating our house. I have to say, I am completely satisfied with our hardwood flooring (Tampa) in the living room and our (Sarasota) tiles in the kitchen are amazing! When I saw your newly laminated flooring, I remember my daughter who is a ballet dancer. The room where they hold their ballet classes has the same floors as yours. Thanks for the excellent post!
