Remember when I said they told us they’d be done today? Well they are not. I’ve heard that these things tend to run later than schedule for unforeseen reasons, so I’m really glad we gave ourselves a one week buffer before our move-in date.
So not much happened the rest of this week. I’m not sure why, but they varnished a day late and its been drying since, so no other work could really be completed.
But even with the minor delay, I’m SOOO happy with how the floors look. They actually look a bit lighter with the varnish applied. In my head, I was imagining a color that was a bit more blackish, but I’m just as thrilled with the color we ended up with. I feel like it has had the most dramatic transforming effect on the apartment out of all our updates so far. And I love that its different from the standard yellow/blond color that most apartments have (nothing wrong with that color, its just more common).
LOVE LOVE LOVE!!
Looks fantastic, guys!
Looks good!
lookin good madam!
Wow Cheryl and Joe! Your floors look amazing–I’ve always told myself that I would want a dark finish for my floors if I ever purchased a place of my own. Also, *great* bathroom renovations w/ the subway tiles and pedastal sink! (and awesome find at the Restoration outlet!!)
