I was checking out a few blogs and ran across Lori from
Frugal Farmhouse Design. I was reading some of her older post and ran across this:
"modern urban farmhouse surprise". You must check it out. I am not even going to tell you the surprise but I was totally shocked at the end.....
Here are just a few shots to get you interested.....
As I scrolled down to a more recent post I saw that she used PLYWOOD to make rustic painted wood floors. I thought that was brilliant. After some research, [I think I am the last one to know about this] I found it was also featured on
Apartment TherapyShe just took plywood and cut it into 8 inch strips.
Primed and painted it
Applied it with glue and nails using a penny as a spacer. I want to marry her.....
You can read more about the whole procedure on her
blogDamn....why did I NOT see this post before I spent $2300 putting hardwoods in my bedroom. I think she spent $300. I could SO use that $2000 now!!!
I REALLY hate when I over spend on something. That was so much more the look I was going for.
Have a great Monday!
