The State Of The Kitchen And A Few Random Pictures.....

I thought for fun I would post a few pictures of the new kitchen floor, even though it is not in yet.I figured since nothing else was going on(and you might be bored)this was a good time to show you the floor.Not all of it of course,just a few pieces.

Also a picture of the completed bathroom and some funky colored mats in our son Sam's room,liked it needed more color.All this today for your viewing pleasure.

Sit back and enjoy the wonderful world of home reno's......



Here is the new kitchen floor.This is a laminate floor,which as you can tell is meant to look like tile. 



A close up of the kitchen floor.This stuff feels almost like cardboard type material.From what the guy at the store told us,this stuff is really durable,which makes it great for a kitchen floor.To do our whole kitchen it cost us $750 for the floor.




One more look at the kitchen floor.We were originally going to do the kitchen floor with the same laminate we used in all the bedrooms.We thought it would flow nice if all the floors looked the same, but unfortunately we ran short on that type of floor.I think we needed about 13 more boxes of that floor.We went back to where we bought the floor but they only had 6 boxes.This floor was a special order floor and it would have taken between 4-6 weeks to get here.Well we didn't want this to hold us up from getting in the house, so we figured it would be quicker if we just bought a different type of floor.We did.All this happened about 6 weeks ago.




This would be the colored mats in Sam's room.These colors match the colors on the wall which I think happened by luck.This room doesn't look as crazy as we thought it would when Sam first told us what colors he wanted on his walls.The mats give the room that extra color kick.




The completed bathroom.Note how the toilet sticks out just a little(we wanted it more even with the vaniety).Why is this you might ask? Well I guess there was a floor joist where the toilet was supposed to go,so they had to move it up a little.It looks off at first, but once you get use to the look it's not that bad.

OK,you have seen the incomplete kitchen floor,the colorful room and the bathroom with the toilet that sticks out.

That's all I have for now!!
