Whew! I am so happy to be able to at last share in this fantastic meme! I have been chompin' at the bit to have something to morph! At last, we have accomplished an improvement that I am just tickled pink to share! I failed to produce adequate before photos... suffice it to say our kitchen floor has needed updating for some time. The sunroom floor was still fashionable and serviceable, but the new change is so welcome! Of course, to begin such an undertaking one must just accept the fact that the house will be turned up end!
Furniture from the sunroom, kitchen and hall were moved into every available space. This required hutches and cabinets to be unloaded and and decisions to be made regarding what to keep, throw out and donate. YAYA! At last a reason to downsize!And YAYA! praise the Lord for such a true blue friend as Dottie who came over and helped me more all this stuff!
Even at that the dining table was laden with the keepers.
Then the day came to begin the process of preparation and application.
Now the sunroom hosts this lovely new surface
The kitchen not only has a marvelous new floor, but the need for added cabinets has been reduced by moving the hutch to that wall.
I love the new arrangement! And I have new impetus to continue downsizing and sorting out more stuff to take to the Discovery shop in a few weeks!

PS Just for Amanda who wants to know the changes around the house here are additional photos:
The hall now sports the halltree instead of the bookcase which really opens the space~
And now that the halltree is out of the livingroom it seems less cluttered! Dear REL has a home now!
It looks like a wonderful job. I wish I could do something like this.

Great transformation! How wonderful to have more elbow room! Your halltree...is that Pulaski? I've had my Pulaski for over 15 years. The Honey Oak finish as turned golden. Did you paint yours?

Schotzy, you have such a beautiful home. I always love seeing photos of it!
ReplyDeleteIt looks awesome! How excited you must be! You have a beautiful home!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the hall picture-- looks great! Need more pics of the sunroom and your studio with the new table -- good incentive to keep it cleaned off, eh? ;>)
ReplyDeleteProud of you for clearing out some stuff!!!
Love,
amanda
The wait was worth it - and what a great job on the floor! I smiled when I saw the crammed in furniture while you were clearing the space. It is always such a tornado effect when you are renovating, isn't it, but it is great to get things back in order even better than before.
