There’s something classic and charming about a checkerboard floor. Not everyone can bring themselves to do it, but take a look at the fun space you could have if you did.
Don’t you think this floor brings in an element of charm?
Whether squared off…..
or on a diagonal….
In an entry….
Or cozy kitchen…..
Checkerboard floors bring in sooooooo much fun and personality.
Apply the technique to old wood floors for a fresh change.
Give your office or work space charm, whimsy and fun.
If doing the floor is a bit scary for you try a rug like this to bring in a similar vibe.
For the manly man – how’s this for a garage? I did this in a client’s garage a few years ago and it looked fabulous. Fun, but macho!
And, if you’re so inclined and motivated enough to do it – bring it to your yard. How cozy and charming is this?!!? I love this look!
Happy Decorating!
