Comments (2)beejas, You obviously already have allot of timber and I think certainly stick with the timber but you might like to use some nice carpet squares under the bed so that its a bit more cosy in winter. Houzz had a forum on the correct placing of carpet squares in and around furniture including bedrooms, as well as suggestions on types of material and suitable colours, if you search, you'll find great inspiration.

Comments (20)I don't know about the osmo, I have only looked at it on the net. If you are looking for the satin look, I can guarantee that is what you will achieve with three coats of the livos Kunos oil as I have used hundreds of litres of it. If you look at their web site it will answer all of your questions and don't hesitate to call them. I would also ask if they have a recommended floor sander in your area, as it is not your normal sand and apply. Keep the questions coming if you have any. There is nothing I enjoy more than knowing that out timber resources are being treated in the best possible manner. These shots are of my own jarrah floor that show the scratches from the couch and after 2 mins repair. If this had been a poly floor the only option would be to sand the entire house....See MoreFloorboards and tiling, getting the flow right..
Comments (9)Hi Fivedock If you're using a tile that looks like timber I think you would be best using the same tile from the front entry throughout. However if you used a tile that looked like stone or concrete in the kitchen/ back area for example, you could possibly use another that looked like timber in the front entry/ living room with fireplace. Or vice versa. This only works because you have a contrast between stone and timber and there's a reasonable demarcation between the living room with the fireplace and the back area. It looks terrible if you have two different timber tiles or two different stone tiles....See Morecarpet versus hard flooring for a hallway
Comments (2)Hard wood! Carpet shows ware and stains (no matter how careful you are) - if you must have carpet, keep it in the bedrooms. Hallways and other high traffic areas should have a more durable option used...See Morejmm1837
