Our wood floor looks exactly like your before pictures and I was wondering what kind of results we would get if we sanded them - and now I know thanks to you and Tom!

I so love the look and comfort of wood floors with old oriental rugs. We've had carpet sorts of rugs before, and they've been terribly hard to keep clean. Our orientals have had every kind of animal 'mishap' with no stains, no odors, and easy to clean. I think you'll be happy with your decision.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-8778794452696009992010-07-05T08:13:47.747-04:002010-07-05T08:13:47.747-04:00Gorgeous!!

It's such an expense to have it cleaned once or twice a year. And hardwood floors are so beautiful.Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-60961960595829928062010-07-04T11:51:03.985-04:002010-07-04T11:51:03.985-04:00Thanks, Linda!

I'm very fond of that blue color, and am surprised at how much I like the black print with it. Fun with blogging! Like putting new paint on the walls of the house!<br /><br />Lisa, the polyurethane went on with a soft roller kind of thing. I can't imagine the work of doing it on hands and knees!<br /><br />Kay, most of my house has some variation on blue/green/gray. I love it. <br /><br />Sherri, it sure makes a huge difference!<br /><br />Pamela, I laughed right out at this! Ah, Mrs. Bale - don't you wish she were real and that she lived nearby?!<br /><br />Staci, thanks. I had fun playing around with the new blogger options. <br /><br />Clair, I read this to Tom.
