Let There Be Floors!

When we first looked at this house a mere 2 (or was it 3?) months ago, we noted that the floors, while worn, were workable. At the time, we decided we didn't need to refinish them. Well, this entire process has been a learning experience and, above all, we've learned that it is always easier to do stuff when the house is empty. The floors were one of our "big ticket" items but we decided that they would well be worth it. As it turns out, we were right. We saw these floors after 2 coats had been applied and 2 more were to be put down. The entire house was brighter, newer, livelier. The transition between the new and old floor in the kitchden was totally ambiguous. It's just another step in the road making this house ours!
