Description
My brother came over from Nevada about 4 weeks ago with several cartons of laminate flooring. He got a great deal at one of those big box stores I don't have here--then he came and put the floor in for me!! Here are the before, during and after pix. I love it--only problem is now everything else looks really old and ugly. You know what that means!!
ps--i put this under "challenge" because that's what it turned out to be. like a jigsaw puzzle; at more than one point, my brother just told us to "leave me alone, i'm thinkin"!! we did so gladly!!

Looks real nice! Your brother did a great job. Be careful or you'll wind up rebuilding the whole house.
I'm thinking the rest of the house is looking pretty good to me. I'd walk a mile backwards in 4 inch heels to have a kitchen floor like this. It really makes the whole room look like a million bucks. I'm looking for a 12 x 14 foot used carpet for one of my bedrooms right now. My carpet is original to the house and my house was built 50 years ago! :-)
Wonderful work he did....and I'm sure it wasn't an easy job. Aloha
WOW! I like this glimpse into your daily life. I love the floor, but what really grabbed me is the hanging plant. Is that a Spider Plant? This whole collage works perfectly and yeah, I can see the "challenge" element of it clearly. I'd pull my hair out trying to get something like this to work right. But ah, it works so well...so perfectly and I love the range of views here. What's even better is I can see where you do stuff...where you make coffee, where you eat, where you look out of the window at your next photographic foray. That's all so great and I love this image (these images) for that. Wonderful work!
The floor turned out great! I know the feeling ... I keep thinking about buying a new fridge, but don't want to spend $25,000 on a kitchen remodel! LOL!
Lovely flooring Marilyn, your brother certainly did a marvelous job on this even if it might have got a bit stressful at times..
Awesome. That reminds me that I need new carpet........ARGGGH!
Congratulations on your new floor. It looks very beautiful and I dont think the other things look older, because of the. Seems you have a cosy home :-)
Old and ugly? I don't think so! Things can be old and shabby, but mainly for me new is often ugly..flatpack furniture is my idea of shoddy hell. If I want something 'new' I trawl the secondhand and charity shops, even the shop at the dump! Doesn't apply to appliances of course..then new is gorgeous! I love this peep into your house..it looks so comfy and happy!
impressive!
lol that hard work for sure. lot of moveing stuff around too.
Interesting sequence of shots depicting the renovation of your floor by your hard working brother, Maz. I screwed up my right knee doing the same thing laying asphalt tile. And LOL on the chanllenge.
Looks to be quite the project! Great shots!
cool capture thanks for the smile warm hugs, Linda
