Please help me decide -- walnut or oak plank floors?
Comments (3)I think it depends on what you want. There is a difference in wood softness/hardness, so that might matter to you for the area you will use it, high heels, children, walkers/wheelchairs etc. About the dark stain........get what you like! Remember when ppl started to lift up carpets on older homes to reveal "outdated" hardwood LOL. Go with what you like and stain it what you want to. If you are worried about re-sale, mostlikely what ever you choose the potential buyers will likely change it anyway! To me it sounds like you want dark walnut : ) I personally really like the look. My cousin did his entry, kitchen and stairs with slate and it is absolutely gorgeous!!! He trimmed it with wood and sunk the tile and it is so beautiful. Here is a pic that is very similar to my cousins. I think it's unique too. His tiles are large ones though, and all trimmed with wood including around the edges in the kitchen and foyer. Here is a link to a wood hardness site if you want some extra to consider. Let us know what you decide: ) Here is a link that might be useful: wood hardness...See MorePlease please help me decide on hardware finish for kitchen
Comments (5)Even though I tend to be a "mitchy-matchy" person, my CKD said to remember that all metals should be considered neutral. I have SS appliances, sink, faucet. ORB hardware seemed to look better with the tortoise ceramic floor, bronze glaze on the cabinets, and darker wood trim on the cabinets in our rustic kitchen. We were also able to get samples to look at. I think it was good advice to look at overall tones/colors and not just the other metals. I also liked all pulls. Excuse any picture problems. I am just figuring that part out....See MoreFloor makeover! HELP!?!
Comments (4)I would look at a luxury vinyl plank that looks like wood. It's hard wearing and would work in your living and dining area as well as your kitchen. If you look at something like Cali Bamboo Mesquite that has a mixture of colors, it will work well with your cabinets. https://www.calibamboo.com/product-mesquite-wood-vinyl-flooring-pro-7904008201.html?gacstm_source=google&gacstm_medium=cpc&gacstm_term=7904008201&gacstm_adgroup=vinyl+flooring&gacstm_campaign=715413792&gclid=Cj0KCQiAs9zSBRC5ARIsAFMtUXF3b7NcpS4v8bhcHdOkvf_EFJ2nHcJQPqamTeHfOUBsAYzg0ramK9gaAj9bEALw_wcB...See MoreHelp me decide please?

Comments (4)@Janymoyer!! I just couldn't let go that a small master bath in our size of home is bad for resale. We bought this house because it was literally the only one that had enough bedrooms for our large family. It had been on the market quite a while. We've taken care of some of the many main reasons why we believe it sat for so long. It doesn't even look like the same house anymore, but it's not like we'll be redoing the master bath again in the next 20 years, so don't want to make a huge mistake now that will hurt us if we decide to sell it before that. I'm not sure why you edited to add the comment now about just donating our money to charity. I've seen people spend a lot more on bathrooms then we will spend even if we do it all. I'm just trying to be wise with our $$$, and trying to think about it from all aspects, while still ending up happy with the finished product and the feeling that we made the right choice considering everything....See MoreAnne
