I recently saw this photo in House Beautiful, and then again on the Nate Berkus show just a few days ago. I absolutely adore the look. But painting wood floors? This one through me for a loop. Aren’t wood floors a luxury? Something everyone wants for their home, but can’t always have? SO then why would you, how could you, just possibly go and paint them!
Well I suppose if you get a room looking like the one above, then you might want to. Goodness I love it. It’s like something out of a fairy tale. My fairy tale. The colors are right up my alley and it has a sophisticated look, yet still very playful. J’adore!
Here are some more very well done jobs in the land of painting floors…
I do really love what I see, but it would take a lot of hard work, a lot of dedication, and a lot of guts to make your floors look like these. It’s something you wouldn’t just be able to change up when you wanted to. You’d have to live with it, and like it for a very long time. It’s a bold move, and probably a crazy idea to some, but they sure are beautiful aren’t they?
I’m torn.
It’s such a unique look. I love the stenciling. Pretty!
Painting your floors is a bold statement, which I admire and am drawn to as I decide on what my own personal decorating style is. I don’t know if I’d ever have the guts to do it, but what an amazing space you’d have if you did paint your floors. A splash of color or pattern to brighten your days. I’ve decided I really do like this painted floors look. I think it fits my personality, but for now, I’m still in the land of apartment living with white walls and wooden floors. I’ll just have to find my color elsewhere in the meantime, which I never have too much trouble doing!
