About two years ago I painted Ella's room blue, furnished with white furniture. I left the skirting boards off though because I always had the intention of polishing the hardwood floors first. Of course two years later they were still the same, with their blotches of paint and huge gaps between the floorboards.

| Before - hardwood floors that are a nice colour but they are very uneven and gappy. |
After the success of Rosie's white floors I was inspired to do the same in Ella's room. So after a lot of gapfilling (some of the gaps were HUGE and always used to bug me because of all the dirt that would get caught in them), and putting on of skirting boards (I'm getting better at cutting mitres) I put the layer of primer down yesterday.

And I'm loving the result already. The room is on the dark side of the house and the white floor lightens it so much.

| Primer is finished - a taste of the final result. |
I'm off to paint the first layer of paint. Is it silly that paint can make me so excited?
so far so good! Looking forward to seeing the finished product
