A few of my keen eyed friends have spotted that we have new flooring in our house.
I guess it really isn't that new any more we had it all done just before Christmas (as you do)
Over two days

day one was all of the carpet in the house
Day two was the new lino
It wasn't fun :-(
but well worth it :-)
oh, for those of you who picked up the lino thing...
yep, we went with linoleum or vinyl depending on where you are
we never thought we would but after living with the existing lino we found that most people thought it was floorboards when they saw it and it was so much warmer under foot and very forgiving if anything was dropped. Very easy to clean and maintain. Perfect!!!

before the kitchen makeover.. just because :-)
it reminds me of how much we have done and how much I like the timber benchtops
We chose a lighter colour lino and we are thrilled with the results.
Some of the before shots are hard to see the floor but the best I could find at the moment.
Something tells me I really need to get my virtual files in order.
The carpet is darker with a different undertone but still brown. The difference is not as easy to see in these photos but in real life it is amazing, it's clean, without stains :-)

It is 3 1/2 years since we moved into this house and it feels like we still have so much to do but it is also good looking back over what we have done.
What do you think? Do you like the new flooring?
Would you ever consider using vinyl/lino?
What is your flooring preference?
