Craftiness: Flor

People,

The living room is starting to take shape, get colorful! 50 pounds of Flor carpeting arrived yesterday.
Modular carpet delivered right to my concierge desk!


I have to admit I was a little  very disappointed when I took the green squares out of the box for they were clearly gray. (There in the upper right. Saddness.) Ah, but I, as a true Minnesotan, thought "that's too bad, but I'll get used to it," and emotionally moved on.

Organized and ready for assembly
But, hooray! It turns out those green squares are just like your favorite color-shifting chameleons and once we started laying them down, man, I was feeling good, they were so green!

And here we are a few days earlier without the Flor installed. I mean, the place is already great--it just needed some color, eh?

 And, so, pending any size adjustments or square rearrangements, here's the final Flor design in my apartment (bonus points if you can ascertain what website my computer is displaying):

Bright and early at 811!

Don't worry, they're not glued down yet (with the flash off)
 And so, just as the sun feels like an old, familiar friend, so too is 811 starting to feel like a home. Bitchin'.
