We've been floored! (in the bedroom only)


Here is Bobby putting down the glue. It looked like chocolate frosting, but it didn't smell like it.




This was after 10+ hours of labor. A 1-day project that wasn't too bad except for all of the squatting we had to do. AND the glue was next to impossible to get off. When you tried to peel it off, it took your skin with it.



But considering the results, it was all worth it. Wouldn't you agree?



Here are some pics with furniture. This flooring is a strand bamboo. That means they kind of shred the bamboo when it's young and press it into boards. It results in a really beautiful textured look. You can't see many of the bamboo knots. It's also known as being really strong and good if you have pets.



One last thing-this post is dedicated to LISA CASCIOLA because every time I see her, she gives me a hard time for not updating our blog often enough. I'm sorry. I would say I'll do better next time, but I don't want to raise your hopes too much. Lisa-let me know when you see this. I need to know you haven't given up on us yet.
