I must admit that I was a little skeptical of how much would actually get done in the 4 days we were gone, and I was pleasantly surprised! It was exciting to come home to progress! Now let's get down to some "before and

Hey Angie! The flooring is a terra cotta tile. We thought it was original to the house, but after pulling it up in some spots, there appears to be layers of hardwood, VCT, and even a different tile in spots. We had originally planned to leave it, but because it was cut out around the cabinets (and some of the footprint of cabinetry is changing), we decided to remove it. Most likely we will be installing a floating cork floor, but now it's a matter of narrowing down a pattern and color. And yes, you should totally come visit!!! Please!
