The floor is "finished"!

I say "finished" because it might get another light sand and another coat of sealer. We still have to put resin in some of the bigger knot holes too but that has been left until the painting and skirt and architraves are done just in case we damage it.


We are VERY happy with how it turned out. Yes it's a tad rough in places. The boards have machine marks and are uneven in places, but it is exactly what we wanted. The variation in the colour ranges from walnut to red so all we did was put a water based clear sealer over them and let the character of the timber speak for itself :)

In other news, we have ordered tiles and begun painting!
