Wooden

I love wood. I remember as a child that I hated the wooden floors in our home and longed for a western-style, wall-to-wall-carpeted room -- and yet I spent half my time on the floor, playing, reading or just lying down. The cool, smooth feel of the floor against my cheek, so soothing in the tropical heat, would often lull me to sleep.

Wood plays a big part in making our house a home, beginning with the driveway gate...



..... the furniture...







.... and yes, the floors. My kids have no problem sleeping on the floor either.



It's beautiful and easy to clean. What wood we do without it?!

You are so right ! I love wood too ! I even would have loved to built a wooden house but that didn't exist here in Belgium. Since a few year yes but they still hide the wooden aspect with bricks. I had replaced all my carpetted rooms by parquet.

Wood is lovely for a floor, carpets take a lot of hard work to look nice, and they don't last like the wood.
