New Carpet

We finally got new carpet!  When I bought this house 5 years ago the upstairs carpet was already on it's last leg.  We finally put new carpet in.   So now we have a nice, soft place to walk.


It was very flat carpet.

There was no softness left to this carpet.  We moved the bed a year and a half ago and you can still see the indentation from the risers.
Isaac says you make carpet angels on new carpet, so here he is demonstrating. 
You can see the vacuum marks now.  Before, when we would vacuum it was more like vacuuming a commercial style carpet; falt and not fluffy.


Now we just have to find the time and energy to put everything back.  Haha, I'm just going to twitch my nose and it will be done, yes?

  1. You’ve made the right decision to change your old carpet. This one definitely makes the space look cozier and warmer! Also, the new carpet would mean a better environment for your family. You won’t have any problems dealing with dust and mites around the house with that!

  2. Thanks Lyda. We do love having the new carpet. It is definitely cozier and when we have children I will feel comfortable letting them play on the ground. It did take about a month to get used to feeling softness under our feet when we first stepped out of bed in the morning. Funny how that is.

  3. Your carpet looks great! The most comfortable and airy carpets are the ones that you can see the marks of movement on. I love the color of your carpet; it goes well with the green walls.

  4. Congratulations on your carpet! And Isaac seems to love it! :) Also, when cleaning your carpet, pay attention to the spots where people usually go and do activities. It will obviously have the most accumulated dirt.
