You, dear reader, may already know this about me: I hate to clean floors. Loathe that chore. My plan for bootsy star is to never clean the floor. Ha. Ok, I know I will have to sweep it every now and then. I wanted to be sure the floor didn't look dirty...even if it is! I have been going back and forth on what do do for the floor. I picked up some floor paint today and found this really cool confetti/glitter stuff. You just throw it up in the air over wet paint and it dries into the floor. What the awesome? I bought two bags and starting tossing!
Here is what I started with. It's the plywood floor. James wanted me to put another type of flooring over it, but I like the plywood look so I kept it. The blue tape on the walls is to mark where the studs are so I know where I can hang up my heavy stuff.

After the floor dries you sweep up the stuff that didn't dry into the floor and you end up with a nicely distributed confetti/glittery floor. How fun can a floor get, for real?

Tomorrow I can sweep up the floor and then that's it...bootsy star has a floor.
Next weekend we will do the trim around the windows, floor and ceiling. I picked up this cool greenish paint for the trim and James came up with the idea to wrap a dowel in burlap for around the ceiling. Genius!
So close to move in time. SO CLOSE!
