As you know from my
last Photo Finish Friday post that I was in California for 6 days visiting
Harmony to help her with home projects. We put new flooring in her family room. Doesn't it look great?? It's an eco-friendly laminate that snaps together. A flooring guru friend of hers helped us get started and then we ran with it! I haven't had so much power tool bonding time in forever. You might recognize some of
Harmony's fabrics in the photo below…
During the flooring process we started talking about what to do with her kitchen. It needs some updating too. I think we are going to do the same concrete counters that I did in my
laundry room. They would look awesome over the gold Formica. We are also planning to paint the cabinetry. In the meantime, I thought it would be really cool to do a wood slice wall on the bottom of her kitchen island. We cut branches from her yard into 1/2 inch to 2 inch slices and then stuck them on with
eco-carpenters adhesive. Oh my! I LOVE LOVE LOVE how this looks! I'm seriously considering a project in my house now. I just can't figure out where.
I'm planning to cover the right section with slices the next time I visit.
Here we are in the new family room. I'm going to make Harmony some couch pillows with reds and blues in them to tie in the rug.
We had so much fun, what are you up to? Teresa
P.S.--Posting of this week's Photo Finish Friday will happen later today. I can't get my days straight this week!

You are truly an incredible person and friend. I am SOOOOOOOOO very grateful. Your fearlessness with the power tools was inspirational! I will think of you every time I see "smiley bear" or "gecko" or any of the other friends who live in our flooring. It will forever be referred to as the T and T Great Room (for Teresa and Tom without whom this flooring would still be sitting in a box!).
Love you so!!!
My pleasure, anything to spend time with you! :)
Do you mind if I repost some of these on the Harmony Art FB page?? Giving you credit of course....
FYI... the entire floor is now 100% finished... well.... 98% still need to address the slider trim but ALL other trim work is DONE as of late last night!
Of course Harmony! You can always post anything from my blog. :)
