Before:
After:
Here is a close up of the floors that Aidan installed. It is a 12mm laminate floor called "American Black Walnut." I love them, they feel solid under my feet and are durable...two kids, a hockey stick, and a ball = no scratches!!! The color is pretty close, but it is a little darker in real life.
Hallway: you can notice the new baseboards that Aidan created from scratch. He also did new door casings with the same character style mouldings on the top that he did in Maeghan's room.
Dining Room: (ugly old table!)
We painted then entire basement, main floor, both stairwells and the upper level hallway. Owen's room was painted a light yellow, he also recieved new mouldings and a new tiled window seat just like we did in Maeghan's room. We also changed all the hardware (door knobs and closet knobs from the original brass to a new brushed nickel. Everything is very neutral and clean. There are just a few odds and ends left, hopefully they don't linger for too long, it'll be nice to not have to worry about any of it anymore!
Honestly? I may not want to leave...we should have done all of this when we first moved in 4 years ago!!!
Looks great, Shan! I really like the color of the floor. And Aidan did a great job on the baseboards, too. Thanks for posting the pictures.
ReplyDeletewow - what a transformation!!
ReplyDeleteLove it! Everything looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful. You sure have done a lot of work! I hope everything goes as smoothly as possible from this point out.
ReplyDeleteNice work! The floors look awesome! Pretty similar to ours but I think yours are darker. I can't believe how much work you guys have got done in such a short amount of time. Maybe we'll put you to work when you're over, since you're so good at it now! lol
ReplyDeleteHi Shannon,
ReplyDeleteIt looks great!! Makes the rooms look larger.
