Flooring

This weekend we really got started on the baby's room. We took off the molding that way in the middle of the wall that went all the way around. We also ripped out the carpet, when we did this we discovered that there was hard wood floor underneath. Unfortunately it is too far gone to restore, plus it has had some help over the years at getting trashed. Here are some pictures.



This is where the carpet padding was stapled to the hardwood floor, in the middle of the room.





I know it is kind of hard to see, but this one shows how the finish on the flooring is completely gone.

Too bad, I guess we will just stick to the laminate wood flooring we bought.
I will post pictures of the entire room once it is finish and show some before and after pictures.

That looks like the hard wood floors in our house, too. They're SO messed up, it's sad. We've got laminate over ours, too.

Can't wait to see your finished floors. Those crazy 1970s styles are such a shame. It seems like everyone ruined their beautiful wood floors in the seventies.
