Living Room/ floors

This is the house as we bought it. Tanner said that we shouldn't paint the border at the top because it looked like a checked flag that would mark the finish line when he runs around the house. The Ceiling was the same color of the walls.

Day one of ownership the carpet gets ripped up. Nasty work but fun to see the results.
Especially when you uncover this. It was interesting to see the center of the room wasn't finished the same way as the edges.
I snapped this picture just before I put poly down you can see that the walls are painted too. This is after two days of sanding. In the corner by the hallway you can see the applicator and in the hall you can see where I had just put a coat on.This picture is just after I finish laying down the first coat. 24hrs later I would lay down a second coat throughout the house. I rented the sander that you can find at your local Lowes HIW. It was pretty nice, an orbital sander with three sanding pads. It really kept the dust down with an attached vaccum. The sand paper was alittle expensive but, for the floors here that weren't in too bad of shape it worked well.
