That would be super cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-was-sneaky-but-i-think-i-convinced-my-husband#post-85709 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 08:04:15 +0000 heffalump 85709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blushink: mint floors would be awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-was-sneaky-but-i-think-i-convinced-my-husband#post-85701 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 06:30:04 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 85701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: probably a light color. Maybe white, mint or coral but I need to think this through. Needs to be a color that I can live with for years. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-was-sneaky-but-i-think-i-convinced-my-husband#post-85700 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 06:26:56 +0000 mediagirl 85700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blushink: Lol I read your post and then had the same question as artbee. :-) I'm glad he's up for it, can't wait to see what you do!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-was-sneaky-but-i-think-i-convinced-my-husband#post-85699 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 06:22:50 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 85699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: baby steps. That's part 2. Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-was-sneaky-but-i-think-i-convinced-my-husband#post-85693 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 06:06:45 +0000 heffalump 85693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pretty! What color? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-was-sneaky-but-i-think-i-convinced-my-husband#post-85675 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 01:45:50 +0000 joyjoy 85675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What a neat idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-was-sneaky-but-i-think-i-convinced-my-husband#post-85593 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 21:19:15 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 85593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsMini: I agree! people usually paint it to avoid changing it. Mine are in perfect condition hence why it took such a long time to convince. :| </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-was-sneaky-but-i-think-i-convinced-my-husband#post-85590 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 21:16:54 +0000 MsMini 85590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That is exciting! I keep trying to convince my parents to paint their hardwood in their living/dining room. It is super old/thin and needs to be replaced anyways, so I think it would be a fun thing to do for a while before they replace it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-was-sneaky-but-i-think-i-convinced-my-husband#post-85577 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 21:05:43 +0000 chopsuey 85577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blushink: LOVE the idea. Just the fact that you got him to agree is a total win! Good job! :) Can't wait to see the finished product! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-was-sneaky-but-i-think-i-convinced-my-husband#post-85575 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 21:04:48 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 85575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: I wanted to remove the wainscotting as well... but that didn't pass. You win some you lose some... right?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-was-sneaky-but-i-think-i-convinced-my-husband#post-85571 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 21:01:30 +0000 chopsuey 85571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oooooh!!!! Totally gonna check your blog! Painted wood floors is a GREAT idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-was-sneaky-but-i-think-i-convinced-my-husband#post-85569 Thu, 01 Mar 2012 21:00:33 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 85569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Again nursery talk. so bear with me.</p> <p>As you know I want something different, and well a designer friend suggested I paint my wood floors. I love the idea (though I am terrified) but figured it would never pass with the hubs.</p> <p>I actually blogged about them and I came home today to see my husband showing my next door neighbor (our handyman) what painted floors looked like and that we would be painting the nursery floor.</p> <p>OMG.... this is a MAJOR WIN!!! Whoot whoot. gotta love being sneaky. hehe </p>
