Stage one of banishing carpet from my house: complete 😌 I kind of love the paint spatters but I will ofc sand and varnish at some point
Two photos of my hardwood bedroom floor after removing TWO layers of old carpet, underneath which were lots of moths 💀 plenty of gaps between the boards and some paint spatters but good condition overall!

L to R, author Mary Paulson-Ellis, dressed in blue and her trademark chunky glasses, smiles listening to author Joanne Harris, in jeans and a cool leather jacket, speak into a microphone. The background is all warm wood tones.
