Reno Update: My new Floor!

Ok Decor lovers... New flash: Last week - at long last I got my floor installed.
Readers of this blog will know that it has been a bit of a search for me to find a floor I could love. mmm ... That would be an understatement. BLUSH.

In my search I found many of the floors out there to be very varnished + fakey looking. I felt allergic to them. :-( My goal was to find a floor that looked like it was out of a cottage with a natural + beat up quality and no icky varnish! Happy to say I finally found that floor at Nadurra.

The floor I finally chose is a Wide plank White Oak from Nadurra's Rustic Neue collection. 
As you can see there is a ton of variation between the planks and a gorgeous matt finish. 
Just what I was looking for.

Here is a closeup of the wood.
Look at those knots baby!

In addition to having gorgeous, FSC approved products the customer service at Nadurra is exceptional.  Rob Kingsley gave me very personalized attention and helped me with selection, delivery and follow up. Can't recommend him enough.

Thanks must also be sent to Kim, Janet, Gaby, and Donna who were all incredibly helpful during my flooring saga. So glad it's over. I never wanna look at another floor sample again. :-)
Now onto the kitchen reno!
