When we first moved into our house about three years ago the orange and brown linoleum floor really bothered me. Every time I walked into the kitchen I avoided looking down. When I had friends over I would mention my disdain for the floor immediately, as if to say, yes, I know this floor is heinous looking.
I had big plans to rip it up and replace it with something else. It's amazing how fast I forgot about my ugly kitchen floor when confronted with the reality of actually removing it and laying something down in its place.
I moved on.
But now I'm back. I want to do something with my kitchen. We recently re-did our bathroom and used white subway tiles for the shower and white penny tiles for the floor. I have some of the subway tiles leftover and am thinking about adding a back splash. I'm dreaming of a white kitchen.
I'm also thinking about cork floor. Does anyone know anything about putting down cork floor? I think it could be easy. But beyond the installation, I'm afraid of how hard it will be to keep clean.
I would share a picture of my current kitchen, but I'm currently writing this from a plane. So, stay tuned for part 2, when I share my ugly linoleum floor with the world.
