I want to put new hardwood floors in my 6 carpeted rooms upstairs. Should I put different hardwood floors in each room or should I put the same hardwood in all 6 rooms? From a good design point of view what do you think is the best idea? People have told me it's a bad idea to go with different floors in each room. I don't know though. What are your thoughts please? I don't want to go with the current Brazilian cherry in all 6 rooms because the current original Brazilian cherry floors are 14 years old and probably won't match up well.

Discovered your blog a few weeks ago, and I just realized that I bought that same rug during the same sale! :) I was wondering if you have tried to clean it yet? I love it but after a few months of a dirty dog and walking on it with shoes, it is looking dingy. I have tried several different carpet/upholstery cleaners but nothing has worked! Just wondering if you had any experience with it.Hilaryhttp://thebattersboxblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-58017324150195747862014-03-12T16:49:14.699-04:002014-03-12T16:49:14.699-04:00I am not sure, but they do it for holidays.

We just got a new bed, and the carpet under the bed was so full of dust and hair it was beyond disgusting! I think I need one of those little robot vaccuum things so I can vaccuum under there every week! But anyway, my hubby has chronic foot pain from plantar fascitis and he swears he can't stand to walk on anything but carpet, so I keep suffereing through my allergies day in and day out. Maybe someday I'll complain enough to change his mind. :) I'll be pinning pictures of your floors just in case, cuz they look fabulous!Hippymom83https://www.blogger.com/profile/03728187917858928125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-30953261245561456452014-02-25T09:16:29.415-05:002014-02-25T09:16:29.415-05:00Can you share what stain and color you used on you...Can you share what stain and color you used on your floors?

Loved it as an adult! So easy to take care of, swiffer it every once in a while. I recently got a shark steam mop and I love it.

And I LOVE it. I like the color of yours better than ours - ours is a more maple/oak, yellow-ish. So it's pretty, but I really like the darker color. I hope someday to get rid of all the carpet in the house - too many kids and pets to manage that much carpet!Microhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17300007835576672962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-50776749492158144902014-02-24T22:03:30.366-05:002014-02-24T22:03:30.366-05:00Woweee!!!!
