playroom before and during pics (new pic added)

January 22nd, 2014 at 04:45 pm

If you guys love a budget room makeover as much as I do, here are some pics to tide you over. I ripped out the carpet today and peeled back part of the padding to reveal hardwood floors. Let's see if there are any surprises!

The befores are a little fuzzy. And remember, there is MORE chaos than usual because we had things out and were moving things around, and we freecycled some furniture.

Stay posted for more. I should have the floors bare by tonight, then it's on to painting, then decorating.

    I highly recommend a product called Rejuvenate.

    It is in the cleaning section of Home Depot.

    I am not kidding when I say it is practically magic! You just mop it on, and it makes the hardwood look brand new. It fills in the scratches, and makes it glow. I used it on the worst ever 100 year old hardwood floors, and they looks like they were redone! Amazing stuff, not kidding.

    Klarose, thanks for the recommendation!
    There are only two problem spots on the floor: one dark spot and one spot where the finish is gone and it's down to almost bare wood. Could have been worse! I'm taking out the carpet pad staples now...
    And guys, I added a new pic...
