Flooring!

I ordered the vinyl flooring from Carpet Express on line.  It is a commercial grade vinyl and kind of retro looking.  It is much nicer than a photo will allow to show.


Derald prepped the floor while I was in the plein air event.  Fortunately most of the floor was in good shape.  Only one small corner with some water damage.


Derald, applying the glue.  It dried for about 30 minutes while we had lunch.  


Derald rolled out the flooring to cut to length and width.

The glue eventually was clear and oh my gosh, talk about STICKY.    Together we laid it.  But, lining up the door edge and the back edge (my area) was a booger.  When you let it touch it STUCK like crazy.  The roll was really heavy for me to try to raise it up to relocate the edge.  Finally we got it.  Trim will cover where I just could get it to move over.  :)  

Brand new floor!  Yeah!  Most of it will be all covered up with furniture!  So look at it now, before the shelves and cabinets and bed/couch goes in.

The floor has off white, grays and blue in it.  You can't really see any blue in this picture.
