Kitchen and Family Room: New Flooring
When the wall between our family room and kitchen see details here came down we had to deal with two different flooring, old carpet and newish laminate. The plan was to find the same laminate.. we found the box in the basement, how hard could it be? Harder than we thought.. that particular one had been discontinued.. and finding something similar was not an easy task..

That an interesting one and I love it on the paper cup.

What beautiful photos! The carousel is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteHa! The shower curtain made me laugh - that's fantastic.
ReplyDeleteit is a GREAT image. have you heard about the old carousel building in asbury park, there may be plans to tear that down. what a shame that would be. i have been reading about it on social media, so who knows what's true. the carousel building seems stable, it is the iconic building next to it that seems iffy!!!
ReplyDeleteDifferent and cool
ReplyDeleteWhat a great photo. I love the rooster and would much rather ride one on a carousel than be chased by one in real life!
ReplyDeleteWonderful photo. I like the way you chose to orient it!
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking about the old carousel we had in my town growing up the other day, and now you're featuring this great photo! Our carousel had some weird animals on it, too.
ReplyDeleteI do like this, especially the rooster.
ReplyDeleteWorks well on the paper cup!
All the best Jan
