Bedroom #2 carpet removal completed!


Well, yesterday I finished stripping the carpet from bedroom #2. The finish on the hardwood in that room was a bit better than in the first bedroom. Click on the pic if you want a large close-up of the finished product. ( And the staples and tack strips were not as bad, but then maybe I'm just getting the hang of this a little better as I go.)
Today I start on the Big Kahuna, the master bedroom. It's not that big of a room, but the main problem is that the furniture is very heavy..solid cherry. I bought a set of those furniture sliders to try to make the task a bit more palatable. It'll be interesting to find out if those things really work.
The other issue is, we have a lot of furniture in the room, so I've been making plans on what to move where and when to get the job done with the least amount of moving stuff around. I'm allowing myself two days to get this room done, but if things go especially well and I get on a roll, I'll try to finish it today.
