Step Two: Floors Refinished!!

Well, its been a few weeks now since we had the floors refinished, and Justin and I have been busy with the after-math of refinishing hardwood floors. Not only is there clean-up to do, but we also decided that since the floors looked so nice and new, that the paint in each of the rooms needed to be freshened-up...

We wanted to paint the office first since it is important that Justin have a place for paperwork, conference calls, etc, while he is at home. Three coats of red paint later and I swore that the next time I wanted a red room, I would hire the professionals to come do it!! Agh...it took two weeks and help from Wayne to get it to the point where we were happy with the finished product.

We also painted the front room a light blue and the back bedroom green.

Here are some pics...

This is the "back master" bedroom mid-sanding...it is the originial master for the house, before the addition was put on:

This is the front bedroom, also mid-sanding. The guys from Mike Elliston Hardwood Flooring spent 6 hours sanding the three rooms and the hallway.

Same bedroom as above, after sanding, staining, and two coats of polyurethane.

After-pic of the hallway:

Small area from hallway into the guest bathroom...beautiful, clean, stained hardwood floors...who knew that these old floors covered up with smelly carpet could shine like this!! We love them!!!

Next up...shoe molding installation and baseboard paint...then bringing in all of the bedroom furniture from our storage unit...more pics to come (hopefully sooner than later!!)!
