When we moved into this house, it was to be temporary..only for a couple of years until we got our house plans worked out, etc. So....7 years later...we had holes in the vinyl and decided that we would just put in some new vinyl..so here is the transformation...

Here is the original ugly kitchen

Nice change! Changing floor coverings has never been an easy choice for me, but "You done good!"

butterflywing 05-12-2009 09:20 PM

whew!!

i'm glad to see that you kept the little dish on the new floor. you had me worried here :lol: :lol:

MadQuilter 05-12-2009 10:15 PM

Is that a lock and snap (or whatever it's called) laminate? It looks like ours. VERY PRETTY!

Pam Pollock 05-12-2009 10:53 PM

Very pretty. Did you have someone do it for you? I need to do my kitchen floors too. I like yours a lot!!

R U handy? We did ours using Konotex Laminate panels. It had a real high rating with Consumer Reports and it was EASY to install. (Can be cut with saw). Easy to clean too and the dogs/cats can't scratch it.

Good luck.

Izy 05-12-2009 11:51 PM

Patti, doesn't it make a difference!! I LOVE your country style kitchen, and I SPIED your chucky chicken piccies too!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

PrettyKitty 05-13-2009 12:43 AM

Nice! What an improvement!

Is that a quilt inspector I see asleep on the chair?

quilter1962 05-13-2009 02:26 AM

What a great job Patti - it makes your kitchen look brighter somehow???

Cinnamon rolls sound really good - bet they are the kind that stick to your hips though aren't they LOL ?????

Love your Chicken Pics on the wall.

Very nice! Goes great w/ your furniture and cabinets too.

gcathie 05-13-2009 03:11 AM

I love the warmer tones....feels inviting and hommmeee.......:-)

Justquilting 05-13-2009 03:16 AM

It makes the room look bigger. I like it, it looks great!!

pocoellie 05-13-2009 03:27 AM

I'm sorry, I'm with Loretta on this. The old flooring doesn't look bad, but I do admit your new flooring looks a lot better.

Knot Sew 05-13-2009 03:29 AM

Its a lovely inviting room and the new floor is perfect :D Do you have decaf :wink:

Ninnie 05-13-2009 03:46 AM

I love your new floor! Great choice!

I also love coffee and homemade cinnamon rolls! :D :D


Ninnie

sandpat 05-13-2009 03:59 AM

Ok..Ok....

Well, the door IS open...I DO have decaf and yes, that is 1 of the 4 in house quilt inspectors laying in the chair. And, not only did I keep the 1 little bowl...I have another 2 tucked into a corner behind the microwave and another auto feeder in the laundry room....which...by the way is next..new flooring in the bath and laundry. This floor is just the cheapo vinyl laminate on a roll and we did have someone lay it for us..we have done plenty ourselves before and I found that I'd rather do something else.. :wink:

Thanks for all your compliments...do come join us for coffee and rolls!

tlrnhi 05-13-2009 04:07 AM

You forgot to mention the chickens on your walls! I noticed them! :)

Rose Hall 05-13-2009 04:08 AM

Can you please share your cinnamon roll recipe? yum!
Rose Hall

sandpat 05-13-2009 04:22 AM

Yes, I have always loved chickens, so the chicken quilt fits right into my stuff!

Rose...I might have been exaggerating about how many miles folks come to beg for them....but they are really good, so yes..I'll post it in the recipe section. I got the recipe from my SIL.

reneebobby 05-13-2009 04:22 AM

Nice

Maride 05-13-2009 05:25 AM

I also have a black cat sitting on one of my chairs almost all the time. It is still a surprise when I pull one and is heavier than I was expecting.

Love the change,

Maria

csbair 05-13-2009 07:47 AM

what she said!! but it does make the room look a lot bigger to have the same flooring in the dr and k. and it does look a lot brighter, even tho i realize that some of that is that the light is different.

remember, 'temporary' is not a real word.

Butterflyspain 05-13-2009 12:51 PM

Didnīlook ugly to me, but if you donīt like something then you grow to hate it.

Lovely warm cozy home you got there Patti
