Settled on appliances, paint colors, and flooring for the new place today.
I guess throwing a rant in here too: it is really hard to find wood flooring places, even engineered wood (which is what I settled on). Is vinyl really making that much of a comeback? No offense to anyone that chose that, it just feels very 70s and tacky to me.
I'm no big fan of vinyl, but it's gotten remarkably good... far better than I ever would have expected.
I built 2 houses myself, and they included various features that made me proud... but the best thing I did was put down plain ole #2 pine T&G flooring... and coated it with tung oil... gorgeous.... (not sure you can still get tung oil, due to some sort of fed concern about it...)
