DIY Faux Wood Floor {TUTURIAL}

Happy happy Friday!! 

I finally have the full tutorial for the paper "wood plank" floors I showed you (and showed you and showed you if you follow me on Facebook). What can I say. It's worth repeating myself over...see...


I was asked by my besties (ok, so,  maybe they wouldn't classify me that way) over at Remodelaholic if I would be their guest and share my tute' over on their blog (because let's face it, they know WAY more people than I do!) and get the word out on how awesome these floors are! And because I want everyone to know, I said ABSOLUTELY! 
 
So come on! Let's go! Head on over and learn how to create your own Faux Wood Paper Floor. Be sure to ask lot's of questions and then come back and follow me on Facebook or better yet, sign up (right over there)
to have emails sent directly to you every time I do something crazy!

Reclaimed Wood Floor {Paper Flooring}

I've done something crazy. And believe me, I've heard about how crazy it was. I've gotten some strange looks. Some "that will never work" comments. Some snickers and chuckles and rolling eyes. One "why don't you just do the real thing". 

I ripped out my perfectly fine carpet.


I cut and painted. I glued and glued. I stained and poly'd.
 

And I created this.
 

Yes. It's a paper floor. Can you believe such a thing?

Either can I.

 I love it. I LOVE IT. 

It's not perfect. Neither am I.

Sometimes you have to follow your own path, even when it's the path no one else travels.
