Simple Fix White Painted Wood Floor
Simple Fix White Painted Wood Floor
Well it's done. I hemmed and hawed and twisted myself in knots over it for nothing. I LOVE IT!
I finally got around to fixing up the floor in my new laundry room. That's not quite accurate, I fixed up 20 square feet of the floor in my laundry room - with Behr's porch floor paint!
I used the same stuff Suzan at Simply Vintageous used for her closet floor (see HERE), except I couldn't buy a small can of the glossy version so I bought the low sheen one. I do really like it in the low sheen, the imperfections are mostly hidden unless you hover over the floor and stare at it and who does that?! I mean who other than the person who did the painting because that person ALWAYS notices the little silly things... am I right?
I also couldn't decide whether to prime first or just paint, but I opted to sand the floor and then just paint it. I like the well worn look of a country cottage, so if the paint chips or wears down here and there I know I'll love it even more. I also decided to skip any decorative treatments - and I considered so many that I couldn't pick one I loved best. In the end, I am happy with the less is more look. I think I have enough colours, patterns and textures that this space looks pretty without the extra design even though Suzan's floor blew me away when I saw it (and still does). Here are all the photos:
