I really like this floor. We'll be getting it from Lowe's though probably, and I'm flexible on manufacturer, but this is the look I'm going for. Hand scraped walnut would go well with the furnishings and wall color, and I believe with transition will with my ceramic tiles. Will need a sample to know for sure. Our price would be much less that this website shows.

Our carpet is so bad in this room. It has to goooooo!!!

It's going to be beautiful Marilyn!!! Here in Indiana...I would rather have carpet in the bedrooms...love getting out of bed to nice warm carpet in the wintertime. BUT.....I sure would like to have it in the rest of the house. Once you get it done...you have got to share pictures.

Marilyn, that floor is gorgeous. I looked for a month before I found my flooring. I would recommend that you look at a whole room of the hand scraped flooring though. That's what I thought I wanted but when I saw it in my friends whole house, I didn't like the waviness, especially in the daylight. It's hard to explain, but all I could see was waves across the floor. Now she loves it, but I did not and I wouldn't have known that if I hadn't seen it in her house.

Gayle, thank you so much for your suggestion. Rex used the hand scraped engineered hardwood in his last parade home. There was over 900 sq ft of it in the kitchen, dining, living alone, and that is where I fell in love with it. I like the wavy look of it. To me, it looks worn and refinished. It's wonderful that we all have different tastes though, or this world would be a very very boring place. I may change my mind when we really get serious about picking the flooring. I do love yours, but with my furniture and walls, a darker color is needed for it to work. In our next home, we may be able to go lighter.

I know we can't do it until after the first of the year, but I'm not waiting long as stated before. Our men have ways of forgetting they said things.

How exciting!!! The flooring is just beautiful!! If I remember right....you had darker trim so the flooring should go beautifully!!! We'll definitely need pictures!!!
