I have 320 sq. ft. of dark cork flooring sitting in my basement acclimating for 72 hours right now!<br /><br />Unfortunately, I don't think I'm going to get it done before the weekend... it would be logistically impossible, so I'm not going to worry about it.<br /><br />But it feels good to have white walls and a prepped floor (had to use a little bit of self-leveler in one corner that was designed to slope towards the center of the basement) and flooring just sitting there, waiting to be installed.<br /><br />My friend Ken (the guy who sold me the product for a steal of a price) said it should be an easy install and I should have it done in about two or three hours.<br /><br />Knowing how I work, I'll give myself five. :)Ethanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10762615024207105680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7254064820989091642.post-74830389072613810422011-04-29T11:53:18.369-05:002011-04-29T11:53:18.369-05:00well it seems dark is the unanimous choice!

It's like having three cats...Ah, too true, JC!<br /><br />It's like having three cats and a whole condo of carpet. I guarantee you I didn't vacuum nearly as much as I should have because I didn't have a visual queue to do so.<br /><br />Now that I have hardwood floors throughout the new house, I see the daily detritus the felines leave behind and I can't believe I lived in such filth in the condo.<br /><br />I think dark is going to be the way to go, too.Ethanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10762615024207105680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7254064820989091642.post-39853564392253320362011-04-06T08:28:47.554-05:002011-04-06T08:28:47.554-05:00I say dark.

It's when I know it is getting dirty, but don't know where to devote my cleaning time because the dust is blending in too well.JCnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7254064820989091642.post-61226111478955297442011-04-02T21:44:27.701-05:002011-04-02T21:44:27.701-05:00I'd go with the darker one.

My youn...Your two cents is much appreciated, Pete.<br /><br />My younger brother agrees with you, though he feels I should consider leaving the purple walls...<br /><br />I think I'll paint the walls and probably go with the darker floor.Ethanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10762615024207105680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7254064820989091642.post-50691377868224349362011-04-02T16:59:35.057-05:002011-04-02T16:59:35.057-05:00I like the darker color with all that white.
