Trying something new like refinishing floors can be scary. I thought the sanding was going to be the tough part (and the edge sanding was) but stain color was even trickier. I loved the whitewash look, and it made me feel like I could do anything, but it was the look I was going for I wanted something a little more midtoned- which ended up turning pink- I panicked. I stressed. And then I mixed my own color using a brown with a very neutral base (to subdue the reds & oranges in the floors natural color) and ended up with something really beautiful! #floorrefinishing #oldhouserenovation #oldhouselove #woodfloors #hometakestime #reelsinstagram #failvideo #1930shouse #homeimprovements #homeimprovementprojects #realhomesofinstagram #realhomes #myinspiredhouse #fixerupper
