Yall, I’m at a total loss and need your expertise.
So this is my front room as you come into my home. My house has wood floors (pretty sure it’s real wood, it’s super thick), but has two small patches of carpet in the sitting rooms. I want to rip out the carpet because it’s 20 years old and no matter how much I get it cleaned it just looks so dingy ever since moving in. I can’t really afford to replace the wood flooring throughout the house currently (or even want to, It’s glued down and gonna be such a pain to remove) but I really don’t want to put more carpet in either. It’s cut in such a way that trying to match wood flooring is gonna look funky, and even then, I have no Idea where the flooring came from to match up.
I really don’t think I have many options other than carpet, but I just wanted to see what you amazingly creative peeps might suggest as I feel like carpet limits my use for this front room here. I dont really need two sitting areas as our main living room is just on the other side of that wall, and would like to maybe convert this space to be utilized in a different way🩷 thanks for your kindness!!
