Second grey paint layer done 😎
Now it needs to dry before I start taping the checkerboard pattern. Do I add a line around the room (about 20cm from walls) and paint the squares inside or paint the squares all the way to the walls?
I am adding skirtingboard once finished.

I sooooo am anti painting hardwood. I would never… haha Thanks!
This isn’t hardwood though. It is a wooden pine floor (softwood) and it was too damaged to just leave the wood and protect it with a finish. I worked 7 days to repair, fill the millions of holes and sand fully to bear wood again. (See my other snaps)
I also matched it to the dining room that had already a paint layer on it. Although also damaged, I did manage to restored.
Ah okay, well that makes total sense then! I know floors can only be refinished so many times before this kind of thing needs to be done anyway. At least it really does look great after the hard work!
Thanks, luckily I could bring it back to life once more. The wooden cabin is 100 years old. So it does look really good. It flows now throughout the rooms as it is all colour matched.
Now the fun of the checkerboard pattern can start.
Enjoy your day/ evening!
