Living Room Floor

This floor was inspired by some Wasi tape I found a year or so ago. I loved the collage-y effect of the butterflies, and wanted to bring some unique elements into the house. I cut scrap wood to the width of the tape and planned the floor, with the inner boards going across the width of the room and the outer boards perpendicular to the tape strip. The tape went down after I finished the whitewash, and then I put on a couple layers of matte varnish, rubbing with crumpled paper bags in between. I had the squares in the corners so I cut out individual butterflies from the tape and added them, but I'm not sure if they'll stay or not. I can always paint over them.
