Getting More from your Floor

I’m going to let you in on a dirty little secret.  I have eight (EIGHT!) different floor cleaning apparatuses.  I guess that’s actually a clean little secret.  From brooms to mops to steamers to shampooers, apparently I care a great deal what my floors look like. I don’t even have half that many hair appliances. Which, if you’ve ever met me, probably explains a lot.

But whereas I despise a dirty floor, Tracie despises a boring one, so she recently did something about hers. Her style is bold, and now so is her floor!

Feel like tackling a project like this yourself?  Here’s Tracie’s list of necessities: “painters tape. sandpaper. ibuprofen. wine.”

Ugh, I believe it!  Just looking at it makes my knees hurt. Great job Tracie!

    I don’t often say this…but I looked at that after image and muttered “Dear Lord Jesus!” Hahaha….that looks like it took a lot of work, but she won in the end! BTW, her blog was fun to read – thanks for the warning Lindsey 😉

    Amazing floor, but there’s not enough wine to entice me to do that. 😉
