Before and After: Family Room

Before


After

Have you ever looked at your home and wondered how you could have neglected to notice an eyesore? The family room rug was just that for me. It was a given, until one day when I realized I could get rid of it altogether. A high traffic area for kids and pets, the seven-year-old rug had seen better days. Initially, we assumed we would go with bamboo, but after some research, it sounded as if it might be too soft and scratch easily for our foot traffic, so we went with Vermont maple. The result-- oh so much better.
