Floor looks great!

So at nearly the last minute, we decided to paint the kitchen/dining room floor instead of putting wood down. At the paint store, I was looking through the Benjamin Moore faux finish brochures, and I found an example that would be perfect for the floor:

I showed it to our wonderful friend Kris who can do amazing things with paint, and she said it was do-able! The base coat is a concrete paint in Grey Flannel, and it is topped with metallic crafts paints in Espresso, Rust, Gold, & Teal. Doesn't it look great?

She did a fabulous job and we are absolutely in debt to her! This is one of my favorite things in the house now! One of the best parts? It cost way less than $100 for everything! Wow!!
