Good morning all,

well, I've got the roll of linoleum open and stretch so that it can relax a bit so I can cut out floormats..likely I'll not cut this one into 2'x3' sections..will cut what I need and keep a larger piece for a cold, snowy day and paint for one of the decks...

I've marked 2 so far, almost tempted to cut another and do a Halloween piece while I'm at it, well see

I did notice yesterday they've come out with a new linoleum that doesn't need gluing and its plastic on back side...do not purchase that one

what you need has to be plyable, paper back (old type)
if your are looking at a piece to purchase yourself you will see a hard plastic type as finish, nope, has to be soft and not a lot of shine

you will see in the distance a floormat under the rec room coffee table that was once under my kitchen table, I'd say it's about 8 years old, next step for it will be a back deck but not until I get new furniture and decide on a color..just so much you can do with floormats..I prefer to regular rug mats because there is no upkeep, simply use a broom and wash. now I do give it many coats of finish once it's done to protect the painting

while I wait for the day to heat up I'll be crafty

off to get the wine glasses from upstairs..some of you asked if I could post as I went along my projects, will do so, step by step

for those wanting to do the wine glasses you could keep up to me and provide me with your e-mail so I can send you the face pattern

and now we start our journey
