bamboozled.

Ding dong the bamboo’s done. (And the lighting and the paint.)

6 months.

1 trip to Ikea.

17 breakdowns.

842 sq. feet of cootie free bamboo flooring.

At least 20 gallons of paint.

My furniture isn’t pretty enough to live here.

Heck, I’m barely pretty enough to live here.

  1. Congratulations on your new space. The colors look beautiful. (Also, the blowin-out-the-candles photo in the sidebar is rad; the wispy burnout from the flame and your daughters facial expression make a great photo.)

  3. Ooooohhhh. So pretty. Love love love the floors. Love.

    We’re in a rental with icky carpet, and I miss pretty floors. *sigh*

    I’m gonna enlarge your photos and cut them up and lay them on my floors. So I can pretend.

  4. I have an interior design site and I am interested in purchasing a link on your website. Your site looks great and I would love to be part of your blogroll. Or, if you prefer we could exchange links.

    If this is possible, could you let me know how much you would charge for a basic text link. My site is located at http://www.genuinestyle.net.

    Thank you for your time, I look forward to hearing back from you.

  5. You are completely pretty enough to live in your new house. Absolutely no question there. The real question is when are you going to do a Tom Cruise impersonation sliding across that beautiful floor??

    (You do realize that your entire downstairs is bigger than the place where you used to live? What was it’s name again? Manslaughter? Something like that right? Hee hee hee, I’m so happy for you I think I may just giggle for a while.)

  6. Just plain WOW! I have been anxious to see how it turned out. I disagree with you, however. This gorgeous house is totally you…absolutely gorgeous. So happy for you. And just like that first post, I can only imagine how the tree will look in YOUR home! Merry Christmas, darlin’!
