What a Difference a Floor Makes

It has been just a wee bit noisy and stinky in our little patch of paradise over the last two days.  That's because we've been getting new jarrah floors laid in our home.  They've not been sanded and finished yet and already they have transformed the living area of our house. Now it looks like it was always part of our home and not an afterthought that was added on later.  And, we're both so excited to be rid of the awful tiles that we had before.  Even the cement pad was an improvement on those. 

Anyway, here are some pics.  We're super happy with the work that has been done. They've created a lovely frame around where the fire place will be put back in.  That's to allow for the tiled hearth that we will need. 







The boards look way better in real life than in the photos.  They contrast in colours isn't anywhere near as dramatic and the tones are lovely and warm.  I can't wait to see it completely finished. Unfortunately, I have to because they won't be back to do that part of the job until mid-December. Bummer.
