The floors are BEAUTIFUL!!! We are so happy with them. We were debating re-finishing the kitchen floors since they were covered in tar paper and looked like re-finishing wouldn't be enough to help them. But we decided to go for it, knowing we wouldn't be happy if we had tile or fake wood.

They aren't perfect because they are the original floors, 105 years old, can you believe that? They have lots of nail holes, holes that were filled with the wrong color, nails, and little imperfections, but I think that is what makes them beautiful. We went with a satin finish and no stain, we really couldn't have asked for a better turn out. I cannot wait to finally have the walls painted, furniture in place and a working kitchen. This year has been extremely tough but we are almost there. YAY!!!
How pretty!
