Way back last year on February 22nd, I exposed the reality of redecorating - it is never limited to the one room you thought was the target of your efforts. My Sainted wife has struck again - in a much more sinister (read: expensive) way: she chose a color ("nutmeg" for those that must know) for the new wood kitchen floor.
Like the granite counter, this makes finding dirt virtually impossible, but my point is IT DIDN'T MATCH ALL OUR OTHER NATURAL OAK FLOORS. Her proposal? Lets refinish them!
Now, please note that refinishing floors is really, really expensive, compared to a coat of paint and a new throw pillow or two. I'm trapped - if we dare lift any of the wall-to-wall, we will then have to refinish THAT floor.
I just never knew rocks and hard places came so cleverly disguised. Redecorating: be afraid, be very afraid.
