Hi There,
We came across your site because we are considering purchasing the distressed Manchurian Walnut floor they have at Home Depot. We like the 3/4″ that is not handscraped but we’re concerned with the lightness of the wood from the sample we got. Do you have a photo of the finished room that you put the floor in? How is it holding up and would you recommend it? Is your floor handscraped or not? We have an old row house and love the distressed look and color, it really would go well. Thanks in advance for any advice. Nick and Maria

Lamia, I’m sorry, but the little bit we have extra we’re keeping for “just in case” – and I don’t think it’s enough to cover what you have left anyway. You might want to contact the Oregon Home Depot stores, because it looks like they still have Manchurian Walnut in stock; I’m sure they would ship it to your local Home Depot for you. Good luck!

Hello-

I came accross your listing online and saw that you have the exact same distressed Manchurian Walnut Flooring that I installed in my house. My request may seem strange, and I apologize for that; but if you have a few square feet of the wood floor I would happilly arrange for shipping and pay you for the wood and shipping. This floor is no longer available at the Home depot and I am left with a 10-15 sq ft unfinished section of my living room. I thought I would give it a try just in case. My email is in the post feed above. Your help would be invaluable.
Best of luck to you.

The finish work does seem to take forever. The work leading up to that seems to go much faster. But in the end it is all so worth it!

Jen-I agree your hubby is awesome! Aren’t we lucky to have such men!

Mrs. Darling, thanks, be sure to stop by next time you're coming through! Debi, thank you. Let me know on the hammer, and thank you so much for running that giveaway. Becky, you're right, it's hard to maintain cool composure at this point. :-) It's been about three years since beginning the project, so we have a little anticipation built up.

I love it all!! It’s looks fabulous.

BTW, I’ve emailed the winner of the hammer, but haven’t received any response. I’ll let you know if I get through to her.

Keep up the GREAT work!

Debi
