There are hardwood floors throughout the house, most of which were refinished by the previous owners. However, there was still carpet left in 3 of the four bedrooms as well as the upstairs hall. So our first big job was pulling up carpet. I was ready for the carpet and carpet pad, but who knew there were so many accessories (and by accessories, I mean tackboard, nails, and staples). After a long day of work, the old hardwoods are now exposed, staple-free, and ready for refinishing--as soon as we come up with the cash to get it done.
One of the formerly carpeted rooms is painted a lovely shade of blue with bright red trim (see before and after pic below). We call that the Jayhawk room. Clearly the color scheme needs to be changed immediately. Black and gold, perhaps?

You should make this the bathroom.
What a perfectly beautiful room just the way it is. Wow - this house MUST have a good history.
On a side note - what a gorgeous home with tons of character!
