Quick update.. floors refinished

Just wanted to stop back and give a quick update.. I had the floors refinished this week. As some may remember, I had the entire living area painted in BM Anjou Pear which I love love love-- here it appears green, other times of day it's yellow and others still, a muddy chartreuse. A real chameleon!

I removed old carpet that had been on the floors since 1976 (newspapers under the carpet confirmed this!). The oak floors beneath weren't in too bad of shape but they had a distinct orange tone. .. which I had refinished in "Early American". I was hesitant-- I didnt want the floors to be too dark but I didnt want the yellow tones of the natural finish. My flooring guy took me to see another house he'd done in the same neighborhood -- and that helped cinch it, I decided to go with the stain. I am very pleased with the results...

I have to paint trim and doors yet and work on window treatments but most additional work will wait until after I move in.
