Our little 1942 Acorn Cottage needed some TLC. When we bought the home, the bedrooms and hallway had carpet on them, and it wasn't until we had lived here a couple of years we discovered there we hardwood floors underneath. TREASURE TROVE!!! They were pretty battered, with stains and dings, but we saw the potential of what could be.
This picture really isn't out of focus.....it's the blur from all of the dust floating around from Dan-the-Man sanding them!
We decided to do two colored stains. A dark walnut with English chestnut over the top to add a little warmth.
Coat numero uno of varnish.....2 more to go!

Floor looks beautiful!!!
Beautiful! We finally ripped out some old, nasty carpet and replaced it with hard wood. We weren't lucky like you...finding it underneath! We love having the wood floors though. Seems much cleaner to me too. With the carpet I felt like I was inhaling dust all day long.
Wow! What a transformation! Love the richness.
