Out with the old and smelly...

There were a few areas in our house that were carpeted. Which at first you think great! Our house is almost completely covered in wood flooring so you would think a few carpeted closets and steps would be nice. Not So! Carpet is a very undesirable thing once it was been urinated on...by a cat. Gross. Smelly.
It had to go!
So we got out our handy dandy channel-locks and hammer and got rid of it. Oh and by we, I mean Steve. I refused to touch the stinky, smelly, dirty carpet :)
 
The Stinky Closet Before:
 
In Progress:
Final Product. TaDa! No more stinky closet :) Our coats would finally have a sanitary home.





Next project: Our back stairs covered in carpet. In short, I think we got a little carried away with ripping out carpet. This carpet was by no means stinky, smelly or dirty. Basically, we wanted to rip it out cause we could and we wanted to see what the wood looked like underneath...so we did.
 Before:
Turns out the floor was probably covered for a reason. This is the main door used in the house and it has clearly had a lot of wear and tear. So, we will get a rug! Problem solved :)
We are excited to refinish the floors in the whole house next summer. One project at a time.

Happy Wife, Happy Life :D
