A baseboard jigsaw puzzle.

.

After the floor was laid and all the new moulding was stained, it was time to arrange the living room jigsaw puzzle.

.

.

I say that because if you’ve ever stained multiple pieces of 10 foot moulding you’ll know they don’t all turn out the same due to variations in the wood.

.

.

Same moulding. Same stain. Totally different grain.

This makes matching and blending a bit of a challenge.

.

.

It had to match an existing door…

.

.

And this slab under the cabinet.

.

.

It’s not easy. And when you use up all the good pieces?

.

.

You hide the bad ones behind a couch.

Lord Dudley Mountcatten kept a close eye on the proceedings from his temporary perch on a stick vacuum I bought and then returned. You know what $249 gets you these days? A horrible piece of plastic junk.

Think I’ll have to suck it up… no pun intended… and buy a Dyson.

Living room flooring – done!

Living room moulding – done!

All that was left was putting the room back together.

.

.

After some serious cleaning that is.

  1. Thanks for the Shark review! I personally think Dyson’s are crap (after I used mine, I went back with my old Hoover vac and it sucked up massive amounts of stuff the Dyson missed).

    I’m glad the flooring is mostly done (now complete?). I wish I could redo mine!!
