Distressed to look old, this brand new painted floor has a time-worn look that is warm and inviting. Divided into long diamonds, each section was stenciled and detailed in a floral motif with a background of pale gold, for a tone-on-tone effect. This is a beautiful way to cover an old wood floor and to lighten a too-dark floor.
